Default Trans Am Fog Light Delete + LED Halo Ring

Took out my fog lights when I got MWC lightweight bumper support and never bothered to put them back on. Liked the simplistic look but always felt like it needed something. Buddy of mine hooked me up with some BRIGHT angel eyes he used on his bimmer and after trying them, I really like the look. Pics don't do it justice, at night they're brighter than the original fog lights

Wired them to the fog light switch and also made it on its own circuit so the fog light switch works regardless if the headlights are turned on or off.

Still don't know how to mount them, right now I'm using scotch tape...

It would be great if they made a complete circle. I'd love to do something like that since I have an intercooler that keeps me from mounting fogs.

Requested night shots:







I also would like a complete circle but can't find any that are nearly half as bright as these...

I think it looks pretty cool. It it were a full circle it would look a bit better. Have you looked into the Retrofit Sources XBT led rings? They are very bright and lit uniformly.

I got these lights from a friend, don't know where he got them. I can post a guide on how to use the existing switch for the fog lights to control these halos if people want.

I may pick up these and try them. For the cost, it's worth trying them.

I'm not looking for them to be superbright, or even to light up the road, that's what I have the BLS HID kit for.... I just want something to be there, which is missing.

It's like my Mercedes emblem on my daily. It's not that bright, but it's just bright enough to see it.

Well, it's a $9 risk... I've spent more on a beer before.

haha yeah......I really like "arrogant bastard" especially in the winter

love to hear what you find out though as I like the look as well.

Ive been thinking about switching out my oznium strips for a set of these so you dont see the individual leds as much
