i was looking for something with some good output, preferably the rectangular shaped ones. did you mount yours to the stock brackets? and did you stick with 55watts? or go upto 100-120watt?

I hunted around until I found OEM (used) replacements. They are out there.

Now have spare parts also.

Thanks Leland!!!!!!

You can put any foglight in their place. I haven't noticed a big difference in the different brands or prices. But I'm not particular about my fog lights, either.

well my lexus, i took out the stock 9003 bulb and retrofitted them with 55watt yellow output HID. fun fun at night to drive with that. and i know im spoiled with full HID's on the car. might consider doing that for the gw eventually. but having no fogs for storms isnt something i want to deal with much longer.

if you are bored heres some vids of the car after my hid install.

I am no light guru......
But to answer your question, yes .
They were in the parts that I picked up and they are a direct fit......
by your response, I am already guessing that somethings not OEM here.....lol

I have a set of Marchall yellow fogs, clear driving, and a third set from a 83 Cherokee that is black, instead of chrome, also they are smaller Marchalls.
