aftermarket fog lights

I have been looking for a stock passenger side fog light for a while and cant find one. I have a 97 se. does anyone here have aftermarket lights instead in the factory location. i think that just might be cheaper and easier then trying to get the stock ones.

Half the price as OE foglamps...and functionally better:

DONT BUY FROM THE DEALER, try www.carlamps.com i think they had OEM parts, if you get it at Nissan you are gonna spend like $200 for one

You can choose either one, it depends on your taste. Personally I prefer the FF75...it fits the front end of the car's "personality" better.

But realize this, both require mounting, more complicated than the OE lamps. THe OE lamps are bolted (two bolts and one ball/cup joint) to a stamped steel bracket, which in turn is bolted to the underside of your bumper (the real steel bumper inside - not the plastic cover you see from the outside). In order to mount any aftermarket lamps, you must discard the bracket and bolt the aftermarket lamps directly to the bumper.
