The passenger fog lamp has kicked the bucket on my 00 XJ. The lense is
bashed to pieces from an attack rock launched by a semi truck. The driver's
side one still works fine. I find that the stock fogs are not bright enough
for my taste. Can anyone reccomend an aftermarket fog light that I can mount
in the factory positions and use the factory switch and relay? What about a
set of Hella 4 or 6" lamps mounted on the bumper. Can the factory wiring,
relay, and switch handle that?

Also, is there a way to by-pass the brights-cut off in the fogs? There are
times when the brights AND the fogs would be helpful - to get as much light
as I can.

I'm assuming the headlamp bulbs are stock on my Cherokee. Is there an
aftermarket bulb availible that will produce more/brighter light without
blinding other motorists or making me look like a boy racer? I used Napa
premium lights in my '91 Tercel and was mildly satisfied.

Thanks,

Carl

 

I've been using Sylvania high output halogens for years and they work
great. Noticeably more light than the standard lamps and not that much
more expensive.

Those bulbs give my XJ the second best lights I've had in any vehicle.

Oddly the best is the same bulbs (only round) in my Studebaker pickup.
I'm not sure if it's because the round bulbs give a better pattern or if
it's because the truck sits up a bit higher.

Now getting your high beams to work with your fog lights might result in
you have a conversation with a law enforcement officer about your
vehicle lighting choices.

Jeff,

Thanks for the reccomendation. Of course, I would only use a high beam
and fog lamp on combinaton in off-road situations, never on the highway.

I got a set of the aftermarket glass headlamp units where I installed
90/100w H4 xenon bulbs.

When I sold the XJ I gave them to a friend who still runs them, the light
output is significantly more than the 55/60w stockers and I never noticed
any glare problem back when I had them or now when my neighbor has them.
