Who makes an LED Fog light that will fit into the rectangular opening in the front bumper ?

I currently have a pair of NLA dual beam H3 type lights and would consider retrofitting them with LEDs, but haven't located yet too

I can't tell if they'll fit. The product specs say dimensions are 10x4x2 inches. I think they're referring to the box. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

Looks like they should be bright. They use Cree's XBD LEDs which kick ass. If you do get them, be very careful in handling as the 4 XBD's on the outside of the unit look to not have a lens. The built-in lens on the XBD's are some type of RTV-like substance which is easily damaged if touched aggressively.

We just made a pool light for a colleague using 24 XBDs with red, green, and blue LEDs. The original pool light had 2 white halogens with a rotating lens for other colors. By flicking the power on/off/on the rotating lens would stop with the desired color.

We went one step further and made an RS232 link between the LEDs and a control board outside the pool with a BLE processor. Now the LED light is controlled via smart phone app.
