I want to run aftermarket fogs and driving lights on my Formula. I've looked at and heard a lot about the Hella FF75's, but have a sinking feeling that running separate fog and driving lights might look dumb. They wouldn't both fit into the nostril hole, so I'd have to put one into the air dam area or something.

So then I start looking around and find a few dual light systems where both the fog and driving are in one smallish housing that would fit. Systems such as the Optilux (Hella) 2020, the Pilot PL-350, or the Catz XLD system, (which is the CATZ XSL driving light and the CATZ XLO fog light combined into one housing).

So. Anyone running any of these? How about fitment into the nostril area of the Firebird or Formula front bumper? Light output? Pictures?

I'm looking at this as more of an appearance mod, than a lighting upgrade. I don't want a $400+ lighting system, but will consider paying $100 for a pair of nicer dual lights.

Nobody uses driving and fogs on the Firebird front facia?
Who would'a guessed?

My choices seem limited. A set of FF75's in fog AND driving, just don't seem to flow. I can't think of where else I could put the second set, but here's a quick edited photo with a set in the nostrils, and a set directly below them under the bumper.

Catz lighting seems to get good marks, so I also edited a pair of their duals ( XLD ) into the same picture. I don't know. It doesn't flow real well either. Gives the car a "snaggletoothed" look that I just don't know if I care for.

Other possibilities include the Peterson Nightwatcher 534 Dual Ion lights.

None of which strike my eye. :/

Go with the Hella's. It will be the cleanest, least expensive of the lights that will perform well. Catz are a great light, I have seen many in person and own the DGM piece with the quad setup myself. The unfortunate thing is that Catz has gone under and that is why most places are listing their product as dicontinued. So replacement parts may be at a premium later.

wai wait...you'll get a ff75, but you wont get a light with the same design but a slightly taller lens and 2 bulbs fit into it??? wtf?

i really dont see a need for the firebird to have foggers...but if you insist on installing them, i'd suggest cutting out the fenders under the factory turn signals, or maybe not using aftermarket lighting at all. if better lighting is what you're looking for, check some of the s-10 afteremarket housings for the h-4 bulbs, all you gotta do is remove the factory glass and install the "diamond cut" ricer stuff in there

what did you end up doing? Im trying to find fog lights for my 95 formula, and that nostril space is a PITA to work with! I would like HID's if I can..
