round yellow fog lights?

[Zaggart]

Does anyone know if they still make the round yellow, plug in fog lights these days? I've been searching for weeks and can't find any, although I know I've seen them on other vintage vehicles cruising around over the years. I really don't want to convert to LEDs.

Thanks!

I know that the ebody guys buy them somewhere. They are out there.
I believe the application was a Canadian requirement.

I found my NOS GE amber high beams on Epay. Correct terminals for cars not for tractors.
I seen people ouse yellow gel slides over there headlamps that works too.

Thanks guys, even on ebay I don't see any plug ins. Cbarge your mention of yellow gel slides sent me in another direction and I found this on Amazon that I think I'll give a shot. If they look like crap I can just get new regular bulbs.

Now that is pretty cool! Please let us know how it turns out. Very curious.

What size are you looking for? Here are a few yellows, but they are probably both too big as they are the standard 7 and 5.75.

Yikes, yeah those are what I'm looking for (not sure exact size) but I'll screw up a lot of plain halogens before I pay that much.

Decided to paint these this weekend, I'm very happy with how it turned out. Probably a bit more yellow than amber but for $15 and not having to upgrade anything I'll definitely take it.

Pretty slick looking.

I apologize for revamping an old thread. I am looking to put some foglights on the front of my 68 fury but want to retain the 4 headlights. I moved to the coast where we now have a lot of fog.

What lights would be "periodic correct"? I mean, I already have LED headlights and I dont mind a modern foglight bit it has to blend in with the front of the car. I was thinking to attach them where those rubber bumperguards attach to the bumper. Any ideas?

good luck with that one. the ones above you could likely (with drilling) mount onto the top of the bumperettes. unless you had in mind to make space IN the grille itself?

hope ya find something that works

I would do rectangular behind the grille if the grille bars aren't too wide.

I've done similar lights behind the grille.

I don't think there's many fog lights that won't look clunky and weird on that car.

To make them look "period correct", you'd have to get some rust on that cheap chrome like they all had after a couple months.

Ahhh that was my idea too. And yes, I am absolutely cetrain most of them will look "clunky". I thought about maybe some slim led strip thing right below the bumper or something but behind the Grill like the turn signals could work!

Edit: Hide them in the (working) scoop? Haha
