Where's all the spot beam fog led's?!

ModHatter · Nov 8, 2016

So I just want some fog lights that match the color temperature of my hid headlights and led light bar.
I ordered a cheap pair off Amazon and hated them. The color was right but they were not aimed at all and simply projected a bunch of useless light into the air and people's eyes. So then I figured I'd buy an expensive set from Diode Dynamics figuring these would be much better. I got the H10XP80 model from Stage3. These are exactly the same as the first pair. See pics..
All I need is a pair of led fog lights that disperse light only back into the fog light assembly for proper aiming. Has anyone found any like what I am describing? If you look at the pic you can see a low tight beak pattern from stock bulbs on right, whereas led's on left are completely dispersed at only 10ft!

stick with halogens if you want useful light, if you want color match then stick with any of the cheap LEDs.

The only other option is this:
2006-2014 Ford F-150 Fog Mount Black | Rigid Industries

SAE Compliant Fog Light Set (D-Series) OE Cool White... | Rigid Industries

Rigid SAE for sure. Love mine.
Was trying to get you a picture, but Photobucket isn't cooperating.

Well that's disappointing! I can't believe no one has made one of these. All it would have to be is an LED light without the LEDs mounted on the end with a projection lens. The stock stock halogens simply have a dark coating on the tip of the light bulb which prevent light from going straight out.

I guess I could go the route of mounting in completely separate light housings, but that was not the route I wanted to go.

Anyone else have a solution to use the stock Fog light housing with an LED bulb that does NOT project straight out?

Thanks for the reply guys.

Sorry, but this has been exhausted to no end on the other forums.
Morimoto XB fogs from TheRetrofitSource, JW Speaker fogs, and Rigid SAE are your best performing choices.

Found a pair on Amazon that might work. They shine out sides only so might more closely match beam pattern. I'll let you know in 2 days when I get them!

For the money it seems you have wasted in bulbs you could have bought a set of XBs

ModHatter · Nov 9, 2016

Haven't wasted any money. Returned both sets.

Ah okay.

milesej05 · Nov 9, 2016

Pretty sure the XB's have issues as well, like shorting out...if I'm not mistaken from previous posts.

$260 for fog lights seems a little excessive, but who am I. It would be nice to get a color matched halogen though.

Don't think halogens come in 6000k+ range. Just bought some $30 led bulbs on Amazon. I'll put the link up along with a small review as soon as I get them.
