    I saw this post on here and really like what they did here but can't figure out how they did it. Does anyone have any idea how to get these fog lights ? The post is really old

    Looks like a Mini Gatling shroud on a 2.5" projector. In this case you would have to use a projector that is meant for a fog light that is completely sealed. You could use a H1 projector from NHK, Morimoto or ACME but they are not sealed. So you would have to find a way to seal them from the elements. Also the lenses are not designed to be exposed and will likely get rock chips very easy.

    the mini gatling gun shroud looks right. i suspect that design is using a blazer projector instead, as that's a sealed unit.

    hell, i'm not even sure blazers are still even available anymore...

    Blazers haven't been made for quite some time! The other option for a strictly fog setup would be Ford Fusion foglights, but I'm not sure the mini-gatling would fit over the body of them.

    ah, that's right, the fusion did take over for a very short time after the blazers were discontinued. and then led stuff came on the scene!

    Even after the LED's like the SS3's hit the scene some guys still prefer the Fusion fogs, usually the diehards though. On our 12 Fusion I had H9's in them and swapped the low beams with EVOX-R (35w Hella ballast and morimoto xb55 bulbs) projectors. Even with a projector that good you could tell they were doing what they were supposed to. The EVOX-R projectors are great for distance but lack on width and the fog lights filled that gap well. They really are pretty good since they don't have much foreground either. They really perform well with a PNP HID too, I just never got around to it.
