My old fogs have been busted for about a year so I can going to replace them with these. I am going to replace them with some LED to help clear out traffic when I have to make a run to the fire station for a call.

they look like trailer lights.
why not get actual foglights? those do indeed look like led marker lights instead of fog lights.
if those are led lights you can change it to a color you prefer.
that's not really the point... unless they are rear fog lights. those don't appear to be able to put any significant light on the road or shoulder in low visibility conditions, hence not fog lights.Quote:

No changing color they are red only.Quote:

video worked for me, they just flash reelax your not missing much. I say get real fog lights, those will get you in trouble.
Just so you know if you do install those and get pulled over for them they are an imediate ticket+repair summons....if the police happen to tow you to inspect them and discover they are the same police issue lights its an immediate impound/seizure for several laws including impersonating a police vehicle. If you want strobes in your fog area just get a bike strobe kit and use your factory bulb housing to hold and protect them.
Not in Texas I can have them on my car for Fire Dept use. I already have several others on the car. My truck is also decked out and I even have a siren on it.Quote:

edit: I have always wanted to join a volunteer department so I can deck out my car, but more importantly to help people. I just don't have a strong stomach to actually help out without creating an issue and needing help my self.
Dude if your in the fire dept it doesent matter what state your in. your part of emergency services................
This was a very frustrating thread due ti the fact that your original post made it seem like you wanted to replace your broken fog lights with police strobes leading us to try and advert you due to various nonos involving the switch only to be lead down a cat and mouse chase to find out your not replacing your fogs but removing them altogether to add more emergency service lights to your car because you are a fireman. Next time just say that up front and avoid all the confusion.
I have been doing it for 9 years now. I have seen some gross shit and have done things that are sick and very sad at the same time. I have seen things from a scratch on the hand to crispy burnt bodies x 3 in 2 different wrecks. I have spent many hours sitting on my butt doing nothing and spent 20 out of 24 hours on one fire call. Never pulled an old lady from a burning building but I have helped out some people in bad shape. The good feeling you get from helping them makes it worth all of the sick shit.Quote:

well now that were on the same page......those are good lights are you doing just one per side or going to try a custom double up cause you can get diff colored lenses like 1red 1yellow and let them alternate in 3burst flash mode.
Both lights in fog area will be red. I have 2 red/amber LEDs behind the grill and 2 red/white LEDs above the license plate. I also took out 1 running light bulb on each side up front and put a clear hide away strobe in them. I will post up pictures when all done with them all lit up
I had a few friends that are/ were in the Helotes fire dept. Not quite sure if they are still there, but on did tell me a few crazy stories when we were still in high school (o'connor).
Who? Things have changed a bunch. I have not ran code in a long time but I still like having them there just in case.
Keith eldard ( i think thats how you spell his last name lol) and walter ball
Kieth is a Lt and Walter is still around but is going to work at Canyon Lake.
you could go with rectangular strobes and mount them in the lower grille area and save the trouble of putting those new strobes and you would still have your OEM fogs
:017: didn't he say he does not use his fog?
Here is a couple of photos installed. I will post a night shot in a few days.

its like knight rider on steroids
That is awesome, most volunteers around here, unless in the big trucks with the back rack, people don't move for because they have like 1 light in the window
Mine do not get used much but it nice to have when you need them.
YOU need Some LOUD ass sirens and a PA system so you can speak directly to the asses that wont move and embares hem....."Hey you ..fuck tard in the RICE HONDA...these lights aint for show, The longer you block me the longer its gonna take for me to get to the fire and save the children burning alive....NOW MOVE YOUR CRAP ASS CAR" Or something like that LMAO
