I was wondering if anyone has swapped out the original 35w bulb in the early round (worthless) fog lights for some LEDs? It should make a nice option and could be used as daytime running lights to help defend ourselves against today's brain dead drivers.
BTW, does anyone else have trouble with the search function giving too many results that don't seem to be relavent? |

The fog lights in my 914 use Halogen H2 bulbs.
Has anyone here seen a LED equivalent? I did a search for "H2 LED bulbs" and did not turn up much, just links to "Hummer H2 bulbs". |

The fog lights in my 914 use Halogen H2 bulbs. Has anyone here seen a LED equivalent? I did a search for "H2 LED bulbs" and did not turn up much, just links to "Hummer H2 bulbs". Round H2 foglight? Probably a Cibie 40 (a.k.a. "Tango"), though Marchal made some round lights too. The H2 is a pretty efficient bulb, but they usually require a separate bulb holder. Not many of of those types of lights (Cibie, Marchal) still around, which may limit the market for the LED replacement for the H2. I've got some H2 lights on our old Volvos, so if you find a LED replacement, please let me know! |
