GT Fog light Fix (pics)

nothing like that...were talking about doing what ford should have done with the wires from the get go.....if you havent done this don't use your fog lights.....infact I took the fuse for mine out

Ive heard of this, got a link?

Thats how it should be. I did it to my first stang, and I'ma do it to this one.

looks like a hella of a lotta work!

Better yet, just get a good set of regular headlight bulbs/lenses and just delete those fog lights and related bracketry to save yourself about 20 pounds of dead weight off the front-end.

I ended up doing the fix because my connector that goes to the fog light switch melted and then i got to breathe in really gross smoke.


Its probably the easiest "mod" that you can do to your car.


After i did mine i had the relay i installed take a dump a week later. So i got to take it all apart again.

GAY GAY GAY, and do what? Leave 2 big holes in the front bumper. Leave the fogs they make the car look killer.

Weight loss on a car is GAY? What's that got to do with sexual orientation, anyway?

The OEM FOG LIGHTS are ghey, IMHO, because they really don't do jack for lighting - strictly an appearance mod, as you've just said so, yourself, by "They make the car LOOK killer." (Looks = nothing in performance.) If you want REAL light get some genuine HID's in place, or otherwise vamp up the primary headlamp system; otherwise, the OEM foggies are so friggin' prone to failure and put out such a worthless amount of light that they're not even worth fixing, anyway. Those empty holes left afterward could be used for intake ducting spots for, say, a pair of turbochargers. Or you could just 'glass and paint over it to smooth it in with the rest of the front fascia (looks perfectly fine on the cars I've seen it done on before). In fact, I think there's even a company or two that sells "plugs" that go in those empty eye sockets left after you take out your foglights. (If not, there should be - I smell a patent worth some money waiting to be claimed... )

All that having been said, still, I give kudos to Jaswir, anyway, for taking the time to rewire it all up right n' proper and un-do another Ford design goof. Me, I'm just lazy and would rather delete something like that than re-engineer the entire wiring setup for it, but the fact that you went the extra mile shows you have a lot of automotive creativity and ambition.

But hey, Smokin91, your car is your car -do with it as you please. Just don't go throwing accusations of homosexuality around at people simply for having a difference of opinion. Because that's just ... well ... ghey.

yeah.. retrofit some xenon hid's.. i did... it's amazing.. yep yep.
