Warning:4Runner fog lights from Perf. Prod.
I bought the Performance Prod. 4Runner oem fog light kit for $99 and installed it back in Jan. The right side went out last week and I finally got to look at it today. I pulled off the rubber cover and the inside was loaded with grime and gunk. I pulled off the left(still working) side and water poured out of it. That rubber cover is a p.o.s and doesn't keep anything out! I should've payed twice as much and got factory fogs.
Anyone else with this problem?

funny......I installed 12 dollar lights from harbor freight a few years back in those holes and they work fine for extra light.
I bought 2 sets and use the second for bulbs abd parts.
I remove the stock light baffles for a burst of light! Kenny S>

My original set of fogs for my 3rd gen which I bought from PP about 5 years ago corroded quickly. I contacted Hella about 6 months later and they said that the kit they made for Toyota, manufactured to Toyota's specs, were garbage. They sent me a replacement pair of lamp housings which are still doing fine. IMHO, Hella may no longer provide that kind of support due to the high failure rate's
