busted O/B foglight

[ah_alex_]

well my drivers side fog finally broke, i noticed a small crack in it when i took the plastic covers off and after plowing through a few snowbanks it completely broke and took the bulb with it.

I asked how much for a new one from Napa and they wanted more than $130 for a whole new assembly. I didnt really want to spend that much money but in my opinion a subaru isnt a subaru without nice, working foglights.
Wondering if there is a cheaper alternative. Ive searched the local scrapyards with no sucess.
Input is greatly appreciated.

took me a minute to find some.. dunno why they wont come up with a normal search. I dont know if that will fit your bumper though. =/

I dont think that one would fit, im not totally sure but i think the O/B bumpers changed in 2000. Plus even if it fits then i would look different from my old one.

I think its slightly smaller than the BG fogs, and it would be different

Thats the only one I could find on ebay. Now could be a good time to upgrade to hellas!

It took me about a year to find a used set.

[d1giPhux]

check your local junkyards too, im sure you can find them there.

[outbackmike]

i have almost the same trouble,after long looks on e-bay for something good i have decided to look for a set of hellas insted...
suggest you do the same.

Hella's. And make sure you buy some rockblocker this time:

$20 saves you $60-100 later.

What Dan said FTW!

[ah_alex_]

where would i get hellas and would they mount in the stock spot?

[Wiscon_Mark]

www.rallylights.com (http://www.rallylights.com)

No, they wouldn't mount stock, but you can mount them, a lot of outback bumper owners have done so.

[ivwarrior]

Actually, if you get the Hella FF200 lights, according to this post (http://www.subaruoutback.org/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=6182&highlight=ff200) over on SubaruOutback.org, they WILL bolt into the stock locations, only just with 1 bolt instead of two like the factory lights. The poster has a 97, but 96-99 should be the same.

[mranlet]

I assume that's the left side (when in the car). I may have one, since I broke one. Are they interchangable side to side?

If I've still got one, it's yours for the price of shipping.

if he wont want it.i dont mind taking it off your hands :lol:
