Default fog lights

Anyone had a problem with their fog lights on a GT? I have had to replace the same one several times. I hane not been able to get a bulb that is as bright as the one that has not been replaced. The first one that was in it was bright.

from my experience 899/893/880 bulbs differ in brightness for example I found that GE bulb is not as bright as phillips. you got to buy them in a set of two or get the exact same brand for replacement to have an even light distribution. another reason could be your fog light lens itself. make sure it is not foggy or the reflecting interior is not worn/burnt out. good luck

The lens looks fine. The one that I have replaced is no brighter than a parking light. The other one is bright. I don't remember but I think they are 40w bulbs. I sure don't want both of them dim like a parking light.

Thanks, I'll check them out. I have a set of Bosch lights on my truck and they are really bright.
