Higher Lumen LED bulbs for factory fogs on LT TB

Does such a thing exist?  The factory fogs don't impress me with their light output.

The LED fogs are bright enough and efficient.  They work fine and I can tell the difference when they're on. They're fog lights and are designed for fog and to make you more visible and not intended as driving lights. That's what your headlights are for.  Ever put your brights on in the fog? Can't see crap.

Thanks Dad.

Whatever... 41 posts and knows it all except for what fog lights are for.  Really dude??? You want brighter park lights and turn signals?  Do those not impress you too?

I know what fog lights are for.

At any rate, the answer is no. The bulbs are built into the housings and I have not yet seen any knock-off housings with brighter or replaceable bulbs that would bolt in place. I’m sure at some point they will appear on eBay and they’ll definitely be cheap garbage.

Thanks for the answer.

If you want even brighter, call and get the squadron pros instead of the sports.

Lol The lights don’t get brighter with high beams “brights”.. it adjusts the angle to see more at night when no cars are present. When you have them on in the fog it reflects off the fog and back into your eyes so it’s more difficult to see. This is why fogs are lower.. fogs could be brighter and it wouldn’t do anything to other drivers or cause you to not be able to see because of how the new lights have a cutoff at a certain height.

I'm aware of aim and cutoff points and that lights don't get brighter with beams. You can blind oncoming traffic with low beams if the lights aren't set correctly i.e. lifting, leveling vehicle height and not re adjusting them.  My point is there's no need for "brighter" fog lights as they're designed to give a bar type beam and not a projecting beam. The brighter they are does give a greater chance of reflection in fog especially those fog lights that have adjustment and are set too high or vehicle height changed making the beam higher. That's the example I was referring too about driving with brights in fog.  Low beams in fog with improperly adjusted lights will give reflection. There's really no benefit in having bright fog lights. These LED fog lights are bright enough. What good would brighter fogs do?  None. Actually, there's no federal requirements or highway safety act that mandates fog lights and no tests are conducted for their effectiveness.  Yea they look cool but no need to stress if you don't have them.  In fact, most high end and newer car models are phasing out fog lights as todays technology and high tech headlights are sufficient enough leaving fog lights redundant having little or no benefit. They can be useful in a few situations but most people don't need them except for the "cool" factor.

I would be interested in a better fog light as well. The led lights do not compare to the ones on my '18. I like fog lights for when I'm on back roads; I can see deer on the side of the road much better than without them. A proper set up fog light should never blind oncoming traffic if setup properly.

Who's saying anything about blinding oncoming traffic?

I think a 1,000,000 lumen lightbar may be what you need. Apparently having seeing issues?
