I have the BlaZERTECH fogs and the bulbs you want are the H2 55 watt. One problem I am having with mine is that the remote quit working for mine. I hear a clicking noise inside the receiver but they won't turn on.

hey sho money where did you get them? they sell them at every auto parts store? thanks again

Pep Boys has them, Autozone and Napa probably have them as well... common fog light bulb. You might want to get a pair and keep the good one as a spare since they're only a few bucks each.

i'll go to the parts store next week and pick one up.

 

[Hubes]

how hard is the bulb to put in?

 

[jcostantino]

Twist and pull, just like a headlight except there is no collar that screws on around it. The plug might have a little clip on the side, too. Don't touch the bulb's glass with your fingers or get any oil on it and check the housings for water and cracks on top/bottom of the housing.

Remove and apply epoxy over the cracks if you have any or just replace the housings.

well i got the bulbs...the guy told my H3's would work so i go down there to put them in and i take a look. it appears if a wire has popped off. i put it back together and presto the light works again. iwas happy and then i went back to the store and returned them.

 

[Hubes]

now my light actually went out and the wires are together. this week i am going to get a test wire and see if there is power going to them. would H3's work? all you do is twist and pull doesn't seem hard. i'll give it a shot this week.

 

[jcostantino]

I think the bulb's name is H3... just make sure that the wattage of the bulb that you replace is the same, there isn't much room in those plastic housings for overwattage bulbs.

Also, Pep Boys should sell the bulb plugs by themselves. I don't know if you meant that the wire came out of the plug or if it came off from where it attached to the wiring harness.

thanks jcos. do u know what are wattage is for the blazertechs? i have the blazertech wires spliced into the stock wiring and last week it came undone from the butt connector. this week the same one stopped working and i looked and the wires were still connected, but still not working. i assume it must be a bulb now. when i last went to te parts store, advanced auto, they only had those hella h3's cost me 12$ for two of them. i wonder if i should go pick them up again

You shouldn't have had to change the wiring if you have a Gen 2.. I know that when I put my Blazer's in (the ones that look just like factory) I used the existing plugs...

I think the lights are 35 or 40 watts though.

You should get a digital multimeter (if you don't have one, they're only $20 and worth it) and see if you're getting voltage to the foglight harness.
