1998 fog light replacement - OEM or aftermarket?
A month ago or so I posted that I was looking for the glass lens for the DS fog light. It fell out somehow and was leaving the bulb exposed. Well I never found any glass, and water probably got in there and ruined something, because now they won't turn on at all. So, I'm looking at replacements.
Should I stick with OEM or look for something else? I don't really need them for looks, I'm not looking to spend a fortune on something super fancy, I just want fog lights that work. So if there's something better than OEM for roughly the same price, tell me about it!

the OEMS run about what...150ish?
I would say get a pair of PIAAS. They are super small and very bring.
PIAA 1400s
PIAA 2100s
PIAA 1100X
I like PIAAS b/c of the bulbs they use and the size. They are pretty compact and yet, throw out a lot of light. They're BLING too!!

Well the other problem I have is that the lower valence is already cut to fit the stock Hellas, which are about 5.5" wide I guess - I'd want to find something to fill that space up.
Would these work?

Since you already have the valence cut, id say go with those. They are extremely cheap and do the job!
If you want brighter, PIAA makes this
