I think they're pretty bright, but as they say, brightness is in the eye of the beholder. They are 50 watt bulbs.

There's very little you have to do to mount these. Pay attention to how the original covers are mounted (when removing them) and install the new ones just as if you were putting the originals back. On a different topic: The lamps it comes with are a much higher wattage than the factory ones (almost double). Resist the temptation of using the original factory harness (yup, its there) and wire the fog lamps using the harness that came with them. ((-:

I have the same issue. These lights can't adjust. I am going to install fog lights with a beam effect to also give me some distance in front of the car. That's also an issue not having lights more that 5-7meters in front of the car.

They are 0.6W. The bulbs are not replaceable. The light is made up of 12 small LED lights embedded in the fixture. But, because they are LEDs, by the time they run out you'll probably want something different anyway.

I replaced the original fog lights with these lights, and they are brighter then the one I replaced. I'm very satisfied with them. I've had them on for several months, no problems and very pleased with my purchased.

Can they be used as fog light bulb replacements? I don't know. I put them (2) into my 2012 BMW R1200GS motorcycle. One in the High beam and one into the low beam. Both work well and are brighter than the factory bulbs.

we did not find them overly bright. they are a nice warm light, but nontheless we put them on a dimmer from Home Depot that works for LED lights. We dont use the dimmer, but its there if we want it.

Hi Sally, I bought these 6 months ago and they look great. The bulbs are G9, 40W. Look them up, I got mine through Amazon as well, the bulbsfairly inexpensive, they come in packs.

Not sure about the wattage, they are bright enough. I ordered the complete light kit for the DS with tail light and I also added some side lights. I am satisfied with it, the only problem was the actual switch to turn the lights on is kinda cheap. You may want to pick up a better made switch before installing.

Check and see if the area where the fog lights would go are 4 inches wide and 6 inches deep.the are much larger than you would think and when I ordered I only received one order of 2 ....ordered 2 sets of two and never saw the 2nd pair .just letting you know

I have them in my tracker they are white and bright not blue they are so bright I often get highbeams flashed at me when my low beams are on . They might work for fog light these come with a 3 prong plug in .

Find one with a higher wattage equivalent, they work but not as bright as i would like. I also need to keep one of the original bulbs in the circut. (7) LED & (1) regular filament bulb. If I didn't bulbs would constantly flash. Has to do with Malibu transformer voltage regulator.

It's not that they are less-bright, just that they give off a different temperature of light than you may be used to. I have two of these in our bedroom for our reading lights - the light is a warmer amber light, so it's very similar to candle light - excellent for night time lighting that isn't too harsh. However, if you are used to daylight lights or bright/cool white low temperature type lights, these will probably seem less bright. I highly disagree with the reviewers that say these lights don't give off enough light to see anything - it's just flat-out wrong. But if you're putting one of these lights in a huge room, you should expect about the same amount of light as a 40w bulb, but it will be a warmer, softer light and it may give the impression of it being less bright. Hope this helps!

Depends...the LEDs are very bright, but there is absolutely no focus of the light from them through my F150's lenses. The light simply scatters in all directions with none of the direction you would typically expect from fog lights (low, under the main beams and out to sides). The light is extremely white with a very, very light bluish tint to them. They contrast against my silverstar xZe bulbs which are not as 'silver' as I would have expected them to be. They are bright, but have a bit of yellow which is considerably more noticeable with the fog lights on. Overall, I would say the fog lights are impressive to look at and they do make the truck stand out, but they do not match the silverstars. If I had it to do over, I would buy conventional fog lights.

Would not recommend them for fog, they are too bright and the color is too white. But for other conditions they are great!
