OP CSVTCHICK New CEG\'er C Joined: Mar 2005 Posts: 33 Ontario,Canada	Can someone please let me know if I can replace my fog lights with some type of blue LED light. I'm pretty good with figuring things out, but before I go ahead and wire something up I wanted to make sure there aren't any of these lights ready-made out there. Any ideas?

It looks great, and is bright as hell. I have seen fog light kits that have build in LEDs in the fogs, that you can turn off an on. You could if you wanted to, wire the fogs up to the stock wiring, and then run your own wires for the built in LEDs. Extereor lighting is a little bit to ricy for me... but hey, do what ever ties your panties in a knot! Some day, I might change my mind... so dont call me a hypocrite! lol 1996 Contour LX (With 2.5L V6 Duratech) Check Out NWC (Northwest Contour) Free Image Hosting and Gallaries http://nwc.phlop.com My 96 Tour's Website http://www.phlop.com

The problem in Canada is that those really bright Halogen headlight's with the blue tinge to them are now illegal. I wonder if I can get away with them as my fogs. I'll have to check with the O.P.P.

Thats extremely wierd...doesn't your government want drivers to see whats infront of them better?? Those lights give off a more considerable amount of light than regular stock bulbs...
