the bulb is brand new, and upon inspection it looks fine

it got dark, but i could switch them and see if that changes anything, but i was asking in case somone else has ever had this problem, cus it might not be bulb related

csledd 12-10-2005 04:22 PM

I'd just switch them and see, man that would bother me so bad lol

switch fogs is alot more of a PITA with the cobra bumper, cus its hard to get ur hand up there

Get a voltage meter or borrow one jam it in the good one and measure what the voltage is your getting.

Then jam it in the other side and see if you get the same reading if you do then its the bulb and go get a new one if it isnt the same then you have a electric problem and most likely need to get a new wire connection to the foglight.

I bet you have a exposed wire and its just worn down from the elements or a bad bulb I dont care if you say its new its called defective product.

See and that is why I want a midget or maybe even a hobbit for Christmas. Those little bitches can get in places we have a hard time. If you had one you could say to your midget..HEY! MIDGET! Go fix my fog light you little bitch. And you could probably just give them a beer afterwards and they would be so happy. Bless their little hearts.

Or you could just switch the bulbs yourself. But I do hope to find a little midget curled up under my tree on Christmas morning. Oh I can't wait.

well im barely 5'3".. do i qualify for midget status? :o

Hey guys. never posted before. i normally just browse through these things. ive been buyin stuff from this site for awhile now. ive got a 03 yellow gt, i figured that i should help a fellow yellow gt guy out, or at least attempt to. now i dont know how the cobra fog lights work, but me and my dad noticed my fogs lights werent the same bright so we got to lookin at it. all i had to do was turn a screw to aim one of my fog lights up. that worked just fine. im not sure if the cobra fogs are like that. if they are it was an easy fix. SpringsStang if you were to shine them up to your garage or a wall do they appear the same bright or is one way dimmer? if one appears dimmer that way, then im not sure what to tell you. well like i said this is my first post, i hope i posted this thing right. well best of luck to you SpringsStang, i know that when mine werent the same bright i was really pissed.

Hey SpringsStang quick question for you. ive got the black and yellow (bumble bee) theme goin on my stang. i see you got black wheels on your stang (looks awesome by the way). what black rims do you think i should put on my car? what size 17 or 18? man i wish my stang was your color yellow. mines the zinc yellow, its more of a lighter yellow color. i used to drive a yellow honda s2000, its more of the color like your car, i loved it. but as long as my cars yellow thats all i really care about. once again good luck with the fogs.
