I did swap the original bulb for LED. Purchased it from Ebay. Just type in the original bulb type LED and whola.

LED's run much cooler not to mention look so much better than bulb.
Hi,

How did you wire the rear fog lamp to your license plate light? Did you have to cut the wiring and splice the fog lamp to the license plate light?

Thank you,

spryor

Can someone tell me why you'd want to drive around with the FOG light on...minus the FOG and using it in conjunction with the rear lights.

It's a......FOG light, of an increased intensity to the rear lights to prevent a rear end collision whilst driving in inclement weather, i.e. FOG.

No offense Zteve but I think you're confusing 'cool' with 'annoying'

Calm down. I've never seen a grown man so furious about a light bulb before, geez.

Anyway, most of the time, the best stuff is "illegal."

That depends where you live. Definitely not illegal here.
