I was wondering if it's possible to change the shape of my fog lights? My current fogs are shaped like a rectangle, like these ones:

and i was wondering if I could change them to something like these:

If it's possible where would i go to buy these? Sorry, I don't know much on exterior lighting lol so feedback would be great.

Thanks!

you would need to go to the 04-06 bumper to have round fogs..not recommended as you would need to change the styrofoam behind the bumper

Can't I just get a black piece of plastic to cover up the rectangle fogs and cut an oval in to it or something?

+1. 07-09 fogs look better anyway. :)


...and if it were only that easy

why and if you mess up..you will need a new bumper..not worth it IMO lol

Aren't there blank inserts for the cars that don't have fogs? You could get a set of those and and have at it... IIRC, someone else did that... got the round fogs from another car and put them in...

Perhaps a bumper+styrofoam swap from an 04-06.

Sedan to hatch won't work.

I prefer your fogs over the 04-06 ones on the hatch. Sedans are a different story. 04-06GT fogs FTW!!!!

would you still think it looks good if i change from the clear fogs to yellow? i always thought the oval yellow fogs looked better than the rectangular ones.

yep. I like yellow fogs. I have black car as well but I put a yellow overlay to make the fog yellow. I find it looks better. It'll probably cost you about $20 to do the fogs. Probably cheaper. I did the yellow lamin-x on my gf's 08 hatch with the square fogs and i like how they look better than the clear colour

im getting dan to install them because I don't want to mess up nor do I have any electrical experience! I hear its much easier if you buy the headlight stalk and then its just plug and play otherwise if you use the button the kit comes with its a little more challenging.

is it $20 for the yellow bulbs or $20 for a yellow overlay?
