Micro DE Fog Lamp Splash Guard for 3G 4Runner

As many of you 3G 4R owners know, our Hella Micro DE fogs corrode prematurely fast. Hella suggested this fancy splash guard design that needs to be machined & cost hundreds (according to my mechanic & bodyshop). So I asked my bodyshop to make me an affordable alternative. This mod will not win any beauty contest for sure but it serves its purpose - better than Hella's design if you ask me. All you need is a 1-gal jug, cut it & affix to protect the Micro DE fog lamp. All they needed to drill was one small hole & this protects the fog all around while still providing good ventilation.

You can paint the jugs black too if you want to hide these more.

You should send this to 4wheel & offroad for the "cheap tricks" article. Good idea.
