Subject: Fog Lights, Help me out. IP: Logged
Message: I have a 1999 dodge Dakota and I am looking for some fog lights. I have found a pair I like http://stores.channeladvisor.com/kayee2501/Items/FG-DAKT-0104-HALO?sck=14484402
They say they are for the 01-04 but what is the difference between those years and the 99's.
My truck never came with fog lights.
If it's the wiring cant I just wire them to a separate switch?
If it is the size cant I just make my fog light opening bigger or smaller if need be?
Or does it have to do with the mounting?

Message: I've been looking at a lot of lighting lately looking for headlights but came across a lot of fog lights. I think the difference is the mounting.

Message: I've never seen fog lights in black. I was just using the amber as an example. Notice how they mount vs the ones you found.

You have to make your own mounting bracket though.
The good news is that they are around 50$ or so.
Good luck.

Message: If your putting lights in the factory cut outs be aware that it is pretty low and the likelyhood of them breaking is high. I am also in the same boat, my kota didn't come with factory lights and I put some aftermarket ones in and I ended up shearing one of the brackets off when I was out playing around on a fairly well maintained road.
I've been thinking about mounting some rectangular driving/fog lights just above the license plate where there is more protection. I've already got the wiring down there ran off a seperate switch mounted on the left hand side of my dash.

Message: I cut the hole slightly small so the fog lights only fit through the front, then I just attached L shape brackets to the back of the fog light so it could not slide through the front. No brackets necessary I just simply made sure they would not go through or come out of the hole.
I did have to remove the bumper, but that wasn't hard at all.
