Is this headlight a fog lamp? Is it illegal to put it on a headlight instead of fog light?

Yes it's very legal and they work really well. I would advise getting some for fog lamps if u have some

This headlight is NOT a fog lamp. On my car, it is unlikely that the fog lamp cirucit (wire and fuse) would even be able to supply that amount of power.

I use it as a headlight in California but never checked out the legality question. It is much brighter than what it replaced providing much improved visibility.

Here's the thing. Usually, unless the package says DOT approved for the bulb, generally speaking its not legal than. It depends how strict your police force will be on you truly.

This listing is for a pair of fog lights. I found mine to match the originals perfectly, and they're very bright.

Fog lights usually use a diffused lense to disperse light and are typically not very bright. These lights are a spot flood combo and a very bright, too bright for fog.. Using these in foggy conditions will create excessive glare and be counterproductive for driving in fog

They should be standard fog lights. You will have to go to the dealer to have them turned on.

No, they aren't fog lights. I don't trust what Amazon says fits. Go to a website like Napa or Advance Auto parts and see what they say. Owner's manual for the car is best though.

I bought it to replace fog lights and I do satisfy with the result. I would not buy this to replace the headlight if i were you.

This is a set of left and right side fog lights (not headlights, just the fogs) complete with bulbs. Remember, these are for the fog lights NOT the headlights.

This is not fog light it actually head light. Depend the right made and model. I order one for my Honda odyssey, it fit perfectly just put in and 1/5 turned and that's it. The while process no screw required.Hope this help

I have had no errors in my F150 as fog lights, but they aren't a directional beam fog light like you may be used to.

I'm not 100% sure b/c I didn't have fog lights. But I will say this, they plugged directly into the headlights so I would say they shouldn't effect your fogs.

Yes, these lamps should be about 3 times brighter than the factory fog lights. Keep in mind however that because of the increase in brightness they will typically produce a tighter beam of light that extends farther than the beam of a normal fog lamp. With that said, in my opinion they are more effective for use as a driving light as opposed to fog. Thank you, Ty Devereaux OffRoad Innovations

They arent fog lights they are flood lights. Very bright off road lights. But the package contains 2 lights

I had the same problem with foglights. The shaft that leads into the assembly had a different notch. They go in but don't lock in.

Tim, these aftermarket replacement fog lamp assemblies come with the bulbs installed. However, to accurately answer your question, they use the same bulbs as the OEM ones. I believe the bulb manufacturer "universal part number" is: 896. The 896 is a 37.5 watt bulb, which has a 90 degree connector out of the back of the bulb. That part number is commonly used by Sylvania, Wagner, GE and other light bulb manufacturers. I also believe these fog light assemblies are the replacements for the second wave of the Gen II 1998.5-2001 Dodge Ram 1500 trucks AND the 1998.5-2002 Dodge Ram 2500/3500 trucks, NOT Sport package. The earlier Gen II trucks (1994-1998) used a different designed fog lens (more lines in the lens) and different bulbs, with straight out the back of the bulb plug connectors on them &lt;P/N's: 880 (27watt) or 893 (37.5 watt)&gt;. I believe you can interchange the different light assys, but not I'm 100% certain about that. The electrical weatherpack connector is very likely to be different where the vehicle's wiring plugs into the back of the bulb, between the 2 different fog light designs. If someone knows any differently (must be 100% sure) or finds out differently, please let me know so that I can change my information given here. There's nothing worse than incorrect information, when trying to make an informed purchase!

The light itself is about 4 1/4" dia. with housing 4 1/2"dia. This is a flood light, I don't think I would like it for a "fog" light imo

When I got mine, it came with an adapter to bump it to Quad headlights. I wired in some new relays and what not, so that the fogs and low beams stay on when you turn on the brights. If you get these, i'd get a higher wattage for for the low beam, the lenses do not allow for much light to pass through. I originally put 35 Watt HID lights in the low beams, they are not very bright, i would go with 55 Watt HIDs. However, if you put some 35 Watt HIDs into your fog lights (if you have them) they will be SUPER bright. These are great lights, when you remove the old headlights, if you don't know how, there is a trap door in the wheel well that will allow you to remove the back bracket off the light, and will save you from breaking it, as i did. If you know how do to a little wiring, these will be easy for you too hook up. They will look good on your truck!
