Installed LED Fogs Tonight


Recommended Posts

I am now wondering if the LED Headlights will be better than the HID's that I am currently running.

That's why I got the Rigids. Leds look good for color but had no output in a reflector housing.

Did you purchase some of the cheap ones like i did the first go around? I can say paid 3 times what i did for these over the first set. Can say you kind of get what you pay for. Atleast that was my experience.

Well I decided that the cheap led fog lights that I got just were not cutting in so I purchased some Opt7 fluxbeam 5202 from amazon. So far I am extremely pleased with the results. I am running HID's in my stock projectors and the new fogs. Here are some pics of what they look like. The above pictures are the before.

They have some really good output. Supposed to be 3500 lumens each bulb. Only thing i am wondering is the cree's are vertical (up and down) in the housing as this is the only way they fit. I would have assumed they would have been horizontal (left and right) to spread the loght out more side to side. Either way they a much better than the before.

I put my halogens back in and my light pattern is not the same. Seems to be farther out then before. Before I removed them to try the LED's the light pattern was right on the road I from of the truck. Now it seems farther down the road. I didn't move any adjusters just popped them out and back in.

They are the opt7 fluxbeam 5202 fogs. Got them off amazon for just under $100. My headlights are just hid bulbs in my stock projectors on my denali. I am totally impressed by the fogs that I have thought about getting some for my headlights and replacing the hids.

So, are those JUST bulbs in the headlights and fog lights or an HID kit? I have a 2015 All Terrain so we have the same headlight set up.

 

Your fog lights?

The link you posted are the fogs that I have. As far as the headlights they are an hid kit in the stock projector housing. I have the headlights hooked up with the relay harness direct to the battery as without it one of the hid bulbs would not fire up.

I installed 5202 headlight bulbs in my fogs. They are bright!

And useful? They project out properly?

What is your HID headlight kit, the Morimoto one or something else?
