Amazon Foglights: Any good?
So I was looking on amazon and I found a pair of aftermarket fog lights that look to be close to the stock ones I don’t have. Now my question is has anyone got these, if so how did they fit, are they worth it?

I bought these and had them for a while while I still had my stock bumper.
They fit and worked great, and I had no problems with them. I would recommend them!
After I got my new bumper, I transferred these over to another 3rd gen, and last I checked, they were still working.

Looks like a regular aftermarket light. It should work, but there's only 1 or 2 manufacturers of the aftermarket lighting, so I bet you can find it cheaper.

I've been running auxbeam led (the cree led pods) from amazon for about 3 years now. I bought some yellow headlight tape to help with how bright they are as well as the color. Never had an issue with them being too bright while driving on the street, I have them aimed down a little. Never had stock running lights to compare to and I have an aftermarket bumper. total cost less than $35

I thought about ordering a pair but ended up getting a used OEM one from Ebay due to the mix reviews. If your patience you can find a pair for around 100 buck and swap out the phillip screws with allen head screws.

Anyone have a source for LED options? Like without modifications? Kind of plug and play? I’d love some LED fogs to match my LED headlights.

they do make LED bulbs to fit the stock fog lights.
What LED headlights are you running ?

Fit is good, beam pattern and brightness is good for a small H3 housing. They do have a bit of shake on washboard, but it basically never happens on the street. Overall, I'd say its worth it.
I have a set sitting in the garage that I used for ~10k miles before getting my aftermarket bumper. PM me if interested...

I'm running these and LOVE them. Bright as hell and no one has ever flashed me. Must be aimed just right.
Where did you find plug and play LED bulbs for stock lights? I'd love a link, or a name.
EDIT: Found these on Amazon but not sure if they'd fit. Amazon says they will. Anyone have experience with something like these?

Recently there was a thread about LED headlights and several people chimed in with their preferences. Might want to scroll back a few pages to see.

These are what Toyota supplied. Mine were all corroded and I replaced with these. Plug and play if you have the bracketry.

Plenty bright and can go yellow or white. Nice cut off too.

ThatÂ’s the thing though, I donÂ’t have fog lights go begin with so I need the brackets too. I found the light stalk in a junkyard 4Runner, but the fog lights were so rusted on the brackets broke when I tried to take them off.
