Yo, this is my dad!
👌😂😂
I just got the Diode Dynamics SS3 Pro fogs for my 2019 F150, they are insane! So bright and so much light output on the road it's unreal.
Glad that those are working for you, they are a fantastic product! If you need anything else, let us know!
I always learn so much by watching your videos. I used to think life with more simple LOL thank you
Not a problem, I am glad that these videos are helpful for you! If you need anyting spcifically, or have any other questions, let us know and we will get you taken care of!
I’m liking this already bc of the video quality! 🤤
Yay! Thank you!
I run the hid bulbs HR suggested in my factory HID headlights and rigid driving pattern Dually lights on a switch for extra width when needed and rigid diffused on a switch and tied into factory fog wiring for insane close lighting that isn’t over bright. Both sets have amber covers that really help in shitty weather
That sounds like you have a great setup, that yellow sure does cut through the weather better than the blue tinted white light like most vehicles these days! If you need anything else, we are here to help! Thank you for your time, and have a great day!
Very informative video. I went with the Morimoto XB LED Fogs. I recently upgraded my stock headlights to an aftermarket LEDs with black housing and the Morimoto should go well with the headlights.
Thanks for the feedback.
Crucial production. Fog lights are vital in the torrential downpours. Saved my ass by keeping the close corners of the lane illuminated. Headlights just shot glare off the sheets of rain back in my face. No high tech LED headlight can replicate a low corner illuminating fog light but they're disappearing from new cars.
You're exactly right! Fog lights are essential to any good lighting system!
Thanks
Explanation & service 💯🎉
Which fog light would fit good for my 2014 Scion TC? Any recommendations? Something that is not too bright and also my headlights are BeamTech.
Great little handy projector :)
Your videos are amazing! I’m debating between the Diode Dynamic SS3 Pro and Morimoto Fog kit... which would you choose? I’m looking for the brightest option which doesn’t impede the headlight bulbs... Would the GTR2 work as fog lights as well?
The brightest option would of course be the Diode Dynamics SS3, as that is not a fog light but actually an offroad spotlight! I would recommend the Morimoto XB Fog lights if you are looking for just a fog light, if you want the most light output then I would recommend going with those SS3 pod lights! Let us know if you have any other questions, we are here to help!
You guys are the best !
Thank you for the support my man, glad we could help you out! Have a great rest of your day!
Had the HID foglights but think im gonna switch to LeDs
I highly recommend the Sealight brand for my Chevy Equinox factory projector fog lights. They are the XF1 type H11 3000K (yellow). Much, much brighter and excellent beam pattern.
Glad you like them, now you will have to try the S-V.4 Yellow LEDs, those things will blow you right out of the water! Link: www.headlightrevolution.com/s-v-4-led-fog-lights-h11-h16-bulbs-yellow-HRH11V4-FOG-Y_2?quantity=1
@@HeadlightRevolution JFC those are expensive.
In the market they are selling headlight lamp and fog light lamp..they look exactly the same, is there a difference between them? Because the sellers told me it's not for headlight it's just for fog light.
Suscribed , there is much work gone into making this videos , people don’t even realize
My man, thank you so much for the support, glad these videos came in handy! If there is anything we can do for you, let us know and we will be happy to help! Sales@HeadlightRevolution.com
My Ford has H3 fog light bulbs, for the HID Kit what type of connector do I need to order to hook up to the cars harness to power the Ballast.
Thank you for commenting, I am happy to help with this! For that H3 HID fog light, you will want to go with the HID kit linked here: www.headlightrevolution.com/H3C-Ultra-Series-HID-System_2?quantity=1
if you use the wide lenses for the squadrons, does it emit better lighting for fog lights? because I was thinking of replacing my stock fog lights with squadrons.
The wide lens would be the better option for the fog lights, since it will help fill those peripherals a little better! Shoot us an email if you have any other questions! Sales@HeadlightRevolution.com
I would like you guys to test vorock8 leds . I bought some and am pleases with them. Wondered about quality. Tha kyou
We havent had a chance to test that product yet, hopefully we will get the chance to do that in the future, and get a video posted for you! Thank you for commenting, and have a great day!
@Headlight Revolution I hope you can do a test with a fog machine to show how the differences in brightness and color temperature affect the your ability to see through fog, or be blinded by your own lights. Which is better? Yellow, white or blue light for penetrating fog at a given distance?
That's a good idea, will run it by the team.
@@HeadlightRevolution Thank you.
The wires won't burn or melt from replacing the original halogen fog bulbs with led's or hid's??? Thank you. Learning so much from these vids
You will be good to go! Let us know if you have any other questions!
I’m just looking to add fog lights to my wife’s Nissan rouge, we have been traveling quite a bit lately to visit family and driving through deer country at night with very dense fog most of the time and reducing speed from 75 mph to about 35 to 40 sometimes, I was just wondering if orange lights were better than amber but nowadays there are many different types and options, I’m just looking for something to see better on the road, what would be my best option?
I would suggest adding some nice bright yellow fogs to use in inclement weather!
I've bought a crystal fog lights for my lancer recently and i replaced the halogen filament with a led bulb but n
I noticed that the led light is high and could blind other drivers..... can i fix it ??
I actually did nit try the halogen bulbs at all
If you bought aftermarket housings for your fog lights, you will have to check with that manufacturer, but most factory fog light housings have an adjuster on the back of them. Let us know if there is anything else we can do for you!
The only thing led I'm putting on my 04 Silverado is the hi beams. I do a lot of night driving in the winter and need the heat from the old bulbs to melt snow.
...so many ppl overlook this, especially in the snow belt and/or mountains. When snow/ice starts sticking to the front of the vehicle, and it's dark out, the last thing you want are caked over head/fog lights. 55w (low beam) halogen bulbs produce a significant amount of heat and 65w high beam bulbs even more so...
Thank you for the video, my car is not equipped with fog lights, I do have the led projector headlights. Are the headlights sufficient to drive in the fog? Thank you
Fog lights can always be installed aftermarket!
Did you guys do any testing with the Hikari 2020 bulbs? Just went with those for my semi truck with old reflector housings. Using the 9007 model bulb.
We havent had the chance to test those bulbs yet, hopefully we will be able to check those out down the road and test them for you! Thank you for your time, and have a great day!
@@HeadlightRevolution please compare them to the hikari ultra bulbs as well.
I have an 11 Sierra. Would the Morimoto unit or just LED bulb inserts be brighter?
The Ultra 2 LED would be brighter, but the Morimoto XB LED Fog lights would produce a more usable beam pattern, so that would be the one I would recommend! I have linked those for you here: www.headlightrevolution.com/gmc-5-inch-morimoto-xb-led-fog-lights-LF-GMC5_2?quantity=1
I have a 2016 Dodge RAM Rebel. I been trying to figure out what headlights and fog lamp upgrade is best. Any ideal. Need help please. And don't want spend a lot. My dog lamp don't match my headlights.

I'm interested in upgrading my foglight bulbs, Which are h1,to the high beam and low beam bulbs, h1.. on my Honda odyssey mini van 2002,will I need a special relay for this ? Or,can it just be wired regularly ?
This would require special work and would honestly be a lot of work for a subpar result. I would recommend upgrading the fog lights with some nice LED bulbs and calling it there!

Great as always. What are the chances you could do a test of the old style 9004 headlights? I have a trooper with them, my dad has an old z24 with them and I have a few friends with vehicles with them and we all want better light
We will see what we can do, however I will say that as far as the bulb brands and lineups, the performance will stay roughly the same, just be slightly higher with all of the 9007 bulb specs! We will see what we can do on rolling out an actual video, and if you have any questions in the meantime, let us know!
@@HeadlightRevolutionthanks. That would be awesome if you could
I have a few vehicles with 9004 . So far the best for me is high low HID 35 watt 6000k . Leds do not work well in 9004 applications.
Thanks for commenting, we will see what we can do for you there!
Pls give a review for F5 led.
I've been using F3 led for 2 years. And still alive. 10 hours straight driving.
Now im using f5 led. I want to get your opinion in this bulb
We will see what we can do, hopefully we will be able to get a video out for you! We will keep you posted!
God the diodide dynamic pods are insane. Wish I had a 2012 ES350 instead of my 2008 for easier installation. Seriously those pods emit so much controlled light I'm impressed with every demonstration.
So glad to hear that they work for you, thanks for commenting! If you need anything else just let us know! Thank you and have a great day!
I know that some LEDs will send a fault code and won't work, any suggestions would be appreciated, thanks
Some LEDs will do that, if they do, you will need one of the PWM modules linked below! Let us know if you have any other questions! Link: www.headlightrevolution.com/gtr-lighting-pwm-hid-kit-modules-ACC.PWM5202.MOD_2?quantity=1
Just subscribe .hey man I got a 2013 challenger red rally v6 model I want to upgrade my fog lights with some nice led any brands from this video you have in mind ?
Shoot us an email at Sales@headlightrevolution.com
at 1:55, is there any special reason to match the Fog light color with the Head light ?
You can choose a different color for fog lights like yellow. We only recommend keeping a similar color if the owner wants a clean looking beam.
Please can you try the Chinese brand because these most common in where we live and they are so cheap
Like 360 brand or aux beam or whatever
We will look into those, and see if we can get a video going for them! Thanks for reaching out!
I think there's an increasing number of drivers like me who are finding it more difficult to drive at night. Low light at dusk is OK, but as the night gets darker I've noticed two conditions that are starting to feel unsafe.1) On very dark roads, especially if the road curves sharply to the right, it becomes difficult to see the right side curb or the right side edge of the lane. 2) In some cases on 2 lane roads, light glare from vehicles approaching uphill in the opposite direction overwhelm my vehicle's illumination of the right side curb or right side edge of the road. I think it would be safer (and would not affect oncoming traffic) if my vehicle could direct more light onto these right side of the road areas. So, I'm curious to know if I can accomplish this with directed fog lights, specifically aimed about 30-45 degrees to the right. Are there fog light kits that I might mount in place of my current ones that will direct their light in this way? I have two Toyota 4Runners that I would like to re-light in this way. Thanks for your very clear videos.
Most people would call this ditch lighting and is always an auxiliary light, some fogs are wider than others, for some nice wide wide fogs I would recommend the Morimoto XB LED fogs!
@@HeadlightRevolution Thanks very much.
Hello bro. My vehicle headlight housing having two beams seperately i.e Projectors for low beam & Reflectors for High beam. I am planning to install HID's in low beam & LED' s in high beam and I want to install projectors for Fog lights with HID's in it. Is this combination work well. Please advice
The projectors for the fog lights will be a little harder, but the rest of this plan sounds great! I am sorry to say that we can not recommend LED or HID for street use, but we can get you halogen replacements! If you get us the year, make, and model of the vehile these will be going into, I would be happy to get you some links!
@@HeadlightRevolution Suzuki Ciaz 2015 model
We do not have that bulb information in our lookup guide, possibly due to the fact that your vehicle was not made in the US. If you could get the bulb sizes for that vehicle, I would be happy to look into this and get you a recommendation!
@@HeadlightRevolution it's dumb that you guys and other companies are forced to say that but it's understandable.
It is a bummer for sure, wish we could recommend the safer options again! Thanks for commenting!

this website won't let me shop for what I need unless I'm a member what a bummer.
I've been trying to find the right set of fog lights for my commercial truck that did not come with any factory fog lights therefore I need something that will mount with a bracket on a bumper. Why is that so difficult.

Great explanation, Chris. One question though, why don't you guys like to use Diode Dynamics products in your output/performance comparison videos? For example, the SS3 fog assembly has killer output, especially compared to the Morimoto XB's (don't get me wrong, those are bright too, but SS3's in my opinion are the winner). Another great idea for a video would be to compare different fog light configurations, i.e., halogen vs. HID (35w vs. 55w.) vs. LED (2 stroke 2.0, S-V4, Ultra 2, SL-1, etc., maybe a few off-brands too) in OEM housing vs. LED assemblies like the Morimoto XB, Baha Designs, DD, etc., kind of like Diode Dynamics did in their fog light assembly shootout vid.
The reason that we do not use Diode Dynamics products here is that they are just a re-make of the Baja Designs products, and are not as bright as even those pod lights. We were just trying to pick one from each style of fog light, and the Baja Design is just the better fit for that style. Thanks for commenting, have a good one!
@@HeadlightRevolution Are the Baja Design really brighter than the SS3's? Paul seemed to prove otherwise in this fog light shootout video:
th-cam.com/video/d5QAUkDtZEo/w-d-xo.html
They are both a fantastic option, but we just chose to go with the Baja Designs product based on our experience. Sorry if that is not the one you would have liked. If there is anything else we can do for you, let us know!
Is the extra $100 for the gtr ultra 2.0 worth it over the hikara ultra?
Absoultely! The Ultra 2 has tested brighter than any LED bubl that we have tested in the past, and it comes with that lifetime warranty! You really cant beat it for the price!
Hikari Ultra dims once it starts getting hot. You need: not only a bright led but one with good heat management.
Hello I have a 2007 Nissan Maxima with HID headlights. I'm trying to find fog lights that match the color but don't want to add an HID conversion kit. Are there HID fog lights where its just plug and play? Or is there any led lights that can match that HID color that's plug and play?
What color temperature are your HID headlight bulbs? I will need to know that to be able to find a similar LED bulb, let us know!
@@HeadlightRevolution my HID headlights are roughly 8000k
@@HeadlightRevolution it's not a dark blue but more than 6000k
Thanks for getting that over to me, I will alsop need to know your ballast wattage. Get me that information and we should be able to figure this out!
@@HeadlightRevolution 55 watts
Does LED last longer if they get splashed?
Obviously there is a chance that they will not last as long if they ar splashed, they are splash resistant, not water proof. I would recommend agains purposely trying to splash them. Let us know if you have any other questions!
I missed the nice sale y’all just had. But the new year is coming.
Indeed it is!
I love your automobile tutorials on the various types of lighting you can use for the on road and off road vehicles that we drive, but my question and request is that I would like to add a rear red led fog lights to my 2018 Toyota 4runner TRD Off Road, would you have any recommendations?
I live up here in Canada where our winters can be very cold and we also get extreme snow falls. I am well equipped in the light up front of my vehicle (Morimoto HID'S in my projectors, Diode dynamics SS3 Sport as fogs and Diode dynamics SL1 as my high beams) But I would really like to add for safety a pair of RED Fog LED's so I am visible from behind, thank you
I would recommend something small that will fit flush with that rear bumper, since you will have to be adding a light housing for this application. I would recommend going with the Baja Designs S1 Flush Mount Pod LEDs, although they will not be red, they are the best option for what you are looking for! I have linked those for you here: www.headlightrevolution.com/Baja-Designs-S1-LED-Pods-Flush-Mount_2?quantity=1

I tried 8000k bulbs they were bright when looked at but for me didn't light up the road very well
8000k is going to actually be less bright, 4300-5500k would be the most desirable color temps!

How are you?
Which country?
I am from India I like your Chanel.
Hey there, thanks for commenting! We are located in Atlanta GA, USA! Thanks for tuning in!
I had LED foglights (EU) and threw them out. they were totally useless in actual bad weather. I got some new quality units from Valeo, bought a pair of yellow Halogen bulbs, now I have actual usable light for bad weather which is also legal as a welcome bonus. I'm still not sure about DOT regulations, it seems like everything is legal there.
I have 3000k led fogs and white headlights in my sierra and it looks great
Glad they are working for you, that is probably one of the most usable pairs of bulb setups! Let us know if you need anything else!
Same for my Focus! Osram CBB low's, White SV4's in highs, and Yellow SV4's in fogs... It just works... Though, I'm presently putting together a foglight projector retrofit to see if I can make it a bit better.
My low beams are the Sv.4 bulbs. Been running great for almost a year now.

I am sorry to say that we do not have that vehicle information on hand, but if you get me the bulb size for that vehicle I would be happy to get you a bulb recommendation!
HID burned the plastic on my expedition fog light
So sorry to hear about that, did you use the 55W ballasts? If you did, that could be the cause of that, we would recommend LED over HID for the fog lights for that reason. Let us know if there is anything we can do for you, we are here to help!
I was not aware HIDs get that hot at the bulb itself.
As far as headlights you mean high and low beam
You should do a video comparing fog lights or regular headlights in a simulated fog fashion. Let people know which ones are best when the snow is pouring in the winter time.
Sure!
