Whose Changed their Fogs?

So I just bought new headlights, and Its getting to the point that I wanna get rid of the ugly fogs too. Is it possible to just change out for a clear lense? Or should I just buy a new set of fogs to replace the stockers? Post up with what youve done!

My 2wd came stock with no fogs, so I bought the 4x4 valance and put these fogs on there:

If you wanted to just go back with stockers, just buy some replacements:

But, if you wanted to try and save some money, try some of that headlight restorer stuff from autozone (couldn't find an autozone link, so just found ya an ebay one):

I've never tried the restoration kit, but have heard it works pretty well.

They mount right up to the existing holes in the chrome bumper.

Those are the same ones that I bought and they are ALOT brighter then stock but I was not 100% happy with the fit.

They came with the bracket - since you have a 4x4, it should just be a direct replacement. And the fit was just like OEM on both of my applications (did this to both my old '02 and my new '03). Light output is great.

yup yup did the same thing as 1clean. they really match with my clear headlights and clear corners and clear off-road lights behind my grill.

and are a lot brighter than the old stockers. plus the HIDs will be even more brighter than halogens...

That's they way I used to have it, came with the PTM surround, and black grill.
I actually want to have the lower valance chromed, just can't find the money or shop to do it.
Thanks for the tip, though.

Ahhh i see. That chrome surround is just a lil too much for my taste.

I love that rear tire mount tho. what'd you do, snag one off an excursion or jeep?

No, it's a Hitch-gate, brought to you by the same people that make the Tire-gate.
