Friends: 0 | Re: How do you replace and gain access to the foglights? I replaced my fog light bulbs with Silver Stars. It wasn't too bad, you reach in from the back of the fascia. I found it helpful to jack the car to reach the driver's side. For some reason the driver's side was worse to replace on my car. Don't know about HIDs, unless they use the same housing and bulb mount. |

Friends: 0 | Re: How do you replace and gain access to the foglights? The lights appear whiter but don't seem to project any farther. I replaced all the headlights and foglights on my wife's Outback, and the change was noticable. The HIDs overpower the wimpy fogs so much on the Prius, that the change to Silver Stars wasn't that dramatic. Don't pay full price, get them on sale, and see what you think. |
