Better place for factory fog lights?

[Frank J. Lloyd]

I bought my 2001 Dodge 1. 5 months ago. Within the first 36 hours of owning it a rock hit my passenger side fog light and broke the lens. Now the bulb has blown because of the moisture getting in. While travelling out of town I stopped at a Dodge dealership in Augusta, Ga. They said I couldn't buy the lens separately. I had to pay $75 for the entire passenger side fog light. This is ridiculous! Is there any other place or better price for this light?

I am looking to replace both of mine after since the lense burned in the center. Check out the CATZ MSC. I here they are a nice fit, work much better then the factory ones, and cost around the same money. See the other post about factory fogs https://www.turbodieselregister.com/ubb//Forum3/HTML/002433.html

I got the new lights in place but, I had to grind some plastic off the factory mounting bracket. This was a little too much I guess because now the bracket is cracked and my passenger light aims up to the second story of a house, problem is, it is the neighbors house. The mounts that came with the new fogs would work so now I have to weld up some brackets of my own. This has been a major PITA. But on a better note, the new fogs are great, Pep Boys Blazer HID sim lights 69. 99 exact same diameter as factory.

I put the Blazers in a few weeks ago, they look great but the beam pattern is a bit narrow IMO.

I agree, that is another reason why is see some Hella Ralleye 1000 driving lights in my Dodge's future. This should compliment the two 55 watt off road lights on the headache rack, and the two KC daylighters waiting to be installed.
