I'm thinking of getting a pair to replace my fog lights. Are these lights only for off road use? Or are they DOT compliant?

Way too bright for normal street use. Great lights, but really more for off road use.

Sorry I do not know I use mine for off road only. I have seen them in some replacement bumpers but don't know the way they used.

These will not be suitable for fog light use. They have a very broad light pattern and you will blind oncoming traffic.

they are bright enough to blind oncoming traffic, a lot would depend on how you have them aimed. i installed mine in a winch bumper, it is hard to tell if it the lights themselves or if it is the bumper causing issues with the light pattern, but I am unimpressed with these lights. I purchased a set of 5 inch KC fogs for the other mounts in the bumper and they work very nicely.

I just wired them with my car's daytime running headlights. It might ask you to attach them to the battery. I'm sure either works. Mine didn't have fog lights before, it should work fine.

Don't know using them as fog lights. I think they could be used as driving lights. They're 100 watts and very bright.

It depends on what you want. The fog lights will cast a short, low, wide light pattern good for low visibility situations such as dust/snow/fog or heavy rain. Driving lights are meant to cast a narrow high intensity pattern over great distances - kind of like high beams but much stronger.

These are fog lights for evening/night time. The lights wattage is 35-55 and the strip of lights are LED's.Please let me know if there is anything else i can do for you or if you have any questions.Sincerely,Shannon

Ehhh, not really because they aren't bright enough, it's the light pattern. These work fantastic for backup lights or work lights. For fog lights you want the beam to cut tight under the fog BUT these would work great to illuminate the sides of the road...be sure and get 30 degree beams to get as much light out in front of you.

Honestly depends on what your looking for. These lights aren't focused for distance. I think the best application for these would be fog lights/ or as I used them for wich is backup lights on my landrover.

These fog lights would make for decent reverse lights. They are bright enough and light up a pretty good area. I have been surprised how much life I've gotten out of them for the cost.

That would be a horrible position to mount this type of fog light. The beam pattern would pretty much get lost that high up, and all you'd accomplish would be to dazzle other drivers. Fog lights should be mounted as close to the ground as possible. They have a very flat beam with a sharp cutoff, designed to get under the fog layer (there's usually a clear layer of air between the road surface and the fog) and illuminate the road without reflecting back in your eyes.

Fog lights aren't a beam light, it's a flood light. My kit fit right in OEM mounts and worked fine.

I replaced the original fog lights with these lights, and they are brighter then the one I replaced. I'm very satisfied with them. I've had them on for several months, no problems and very pleased with my purchased.

The power consumption is 12v but the lumens I'm not to sure nor would I be able to give an accurate answer because the fog lights I have make them a little dimmer than they are, for the best look you should put them into projector fog lights. Sorry i can't go into more detail about them but I am very happy with how they look at night. They aren't too bright but they look amazing coming down the road.

Poor compared to factory. Brights will be as bright as your dims are now. I have already went and purchased the (suppose to be) best bulbs you can buy didn't help. Still like them on my truck , but I also have fog lights. If you do buy don't make the same mistake I did at first, remove clips off factory headlights and replace on new headlights they will then already be adjusted. Hope this helps.

The ones I have were fog lights. Two of them together are brighter than my main 55w halogen headlight. I don't think using one alone would be sufficient for useful light as a headlamp though. They give off that kind of bluish light. That's annoying, but for the price, they do their job.

I used them on my F250 Super Duty and also bought the amber lens cover so its like getting two lights in one. They provide excellent light and with the amber lens cover they blend perfect with my HID 5000k headlights for snowy and foggy nights. Will be getting a pair to mount on my ATV.
