1971 GMC C/K Pickup 2500 Universal Fog Lights–LED and Halogen

Universal Fog Lights

While some prefer the simple, bolt-on mounting and plug-and-play wiring of direct-fit fog light kits, what about vehicles without extensive aftermarket support? In this scenario, we recommend checking out our selection of Universal Fog Lights, configurable to a wide selection of aftermarket bumpers, roof racks, and essentially any vehicle, with slight modifications. 

Like direct-fit fog light kits, universal fog lights offer the same benefits of increased low-light visibility, especially in rainy, foggy, and dusty conditions. Whether you’re hoping to improve light output on an avid off-roader or daily driver, universal fog lights will do the trick!

Fog Light Types

Fog lights come in several configurations, including sizing, bulb type, color, shape, and more! Let’s cover some of the most common variances across fog lights.

Light Shape

Universal fog lights come in several shapes, including round, square, and rectangular. Ultimately, your choice boils down to which shape best suits your application, allotted space, and aesthetic preferences, as all shapes can produce similar light levels and beam patterns.

Bulb Technology

Fog lights also come in various bulb types, which directly impact variables like color temperature, output, brightness, longevity, and price. The most popular bulb types include halogen and LED. Halogen bulbs are a dated yet inexpensive and reliable technology, offering moderate output, moderate lifespan, and a warm, yellow tone. By comparison, LED bulbs produce crisp white light, outstanding brightness, long lifespans, and are far more efficient.

Light Color

Aside from the variances in color temperature across different bulb types, universal fog lights come in two primary colors: white and amber. While white light is crisp and vibrant, amber light tends to cut through fog and dust more efficiently. Additionally, amber light is typically more pleasant on the eyes, reducing eye strain.

Size

What size best suits your application? We offer universal fog lights in sizes from 2–9 inches, ensuring a proper fitment on nearly all applications. 

Regardless of the configuration you choose, ensure your preferred fog lights meet SAE and ECE standards to prevent you from blinding oncoming traffic. If your lights aren’t legal for road use, consider ordering covers for safety purposes.
