    Truth be told, most modern 'fog lights' aren't even the correct shape to be good at their job. There was a reason many of the old-skool European ones were rectangular and amber-colored. The rectangular lights produced a low, wide beam, and the amber color reduced reflected glare. The ones most cars have today are just mini H4 headlights mounted in the bottom of the bumper cover.
    Alright I will just get the LED fog lamp. I hope the installation process still can be done without lift, bumper removal, nor computer. I just want to do it at the parking lot lol. The video from Erik is helpful. Hope it not gonna be an all day job because I want to take my time. DIY oil change usually take me 2-3 hours at the lift rental.

    I’m inclined to have the dealer installed instead but I shall see.
