Hella fog lights

Post by spiderrey »

Non fiat content. Just put these Hellas on my truck, was wondering if I could just plug them into the existing fog light harness on the truck. Truck had factory fog lights before the front end got blown off. Fog lights have h3 bulbs.

Thank you Denise, but Ive never been necking anywhere around Those woods. :) . I really like these trucks. Got this one from my son pretty much as is cept for the hellas, bed cover , stereo system and new thomostate housing. That was a bitch to install by the way. Oh and I got the tires from my buddy Mark. I really preferred my ol ranger to this one cept for the motor, this ones bigger. The other was a 90 with a 6 inch lift some 411,s and an Auburn, it was a 4x this one isnt. I threw the foggers on and put some chains in the cab because Im workin over on the other side of the crest. The weather gets bad going over the pass at times.

Mark, smart guy, it has tabs for 4 big lights across the front. It might eventually get two. What do you think about the tiny hellas? i think they are pretty cool.

they seem like little girly lights to me, kinda like a chick wearing diamond studs in her ears, I think that truck is begging for big nasty blinding lights that make you think a team of locomotives is going to run you down :twisted:

You know, you should have your own t v show called Joe smart ass, lol. I almost bought the larger hella fog lights, they are much cheaper. But I didnt want them sticking out to low where they might get busted. But hey thanx 4 ur opinion, knuckle head.

You could line up the big ones along the brush guard, but the small ones will do the job. Will that sucker ever see mud?

Oh, Id like to see some big ones on that brush guard. Hopefully it will see some mud but it needs an auburn first.

Really nice truck,Rey.It looks like one of the desert pre-runners.Is it set up that way,and do you bash it around off road? I sold my last Jeep to buy my Spider.I love the off road and even did some competitive rock crawling,but I always wanted to try some high speed desert runnin'. :mrgreen:

Thanx Craig, my son put most of this one together. It started out as just a lifted ranger edge. Then he started modifying it. First he hit a tahoe head on and the tahoe was totaled., his front bumper dissapeared after that one. Then he rear ended a suburban, kids got heart, cant stand chevys. His two frame rails were stuck in the back doors of that ladies suburban. They both burned rubber till he finally pulled out of her rear. Then he ran into a guy at work that built stuff like this in his garage. So a hundred bucks later he went home with this.
Anyway, it mostly gets me to work, only had it about 6 months so far. Needs an auburn before it gets to far off roard like my last ranger. But I do like 2 play
