Re:driving/fog lights for 2003

I put factory fog lamps on mine. Mopar makes a kit that comes with everything you need to put the lamps in. Go to your parts department and give them this code: 82208102<br>The kit includes the lamps, wiring, relay, and switch needed to add the lamps. The kit is about $170.00 and is breeze to install. Its a bit pricy but it looks stock.

I'm pretty sure they are 75 watts, I will double check. The only problem with using aftermarket is designing a bracket to hold the lamps behind the louvers. Trust me I looked at it and there is not a whole lot options unless your good at &quot;Jerry Rigging&quot;. I wonder if you can buy the brackets seperate then use like a wal-mart brand of fog lamp??

Yeah I know I was just saying. I saw a few guys running around with 1500's that did not cut them out. They moved the lights back a bit so it would not melt the plastic. Like I said jerry rig it or do it the right way and get the mopar kit. FYI mine are 51 Watters.
