If you find that your RV has white fog lights, you can swap them out for yellow. For example, you can update fog lights by either changing the bulb or installing new lights using a fog light kit. Let’s check out each of these options in further detail.
The first option is to swap out your white light with a yellow bulb. You can find bulbs that fit your vehicle at an automotive parts shop, online at the many automotive parts websites, or even on e-commerce websites such as Amazon. You can easily install these light bulbs yourself, or you can take your automobile or RV to a certified mechanic for assistance.
With a range of colors from yellow, amber, and white, colored fog lights can prevent eye strain and glare. These are our yellow fogs operating. You can see the yellow light shining low and centered. This is operating the off-road light bar at the same time however so its harder to see.If you don’t already have fog lights, you can purchase some online, and install them yourself or take your rig to a certified mechanic. Make sure to read reviews and ask questions to ensure you get a good product that will work with your RV. With that in mind, there are a few different options for installing fog lights on your rig.
First, you can install them on the bumper or attach them to your bull bar. A bull bar is a metal bar frequently installed on trucks, SUVs, or recreational vehicles to protect the engine if you hit a large animal, such as a deer. Finally, you can create a custom hole in your bumper for the fog lights.
Just remember, the height of your installations is as important as the location. For full functionality, fog lights must illuminate the road and work best if they don’t shine right into the fog. Therefore, the correct mounting height for fog lights should stay between 12 to 24 inches above the ground.
We have had great luck with these lights that have both white and yellow options in one housing with a good cutoff so as not to blind oncoming drivers.
Fog, at any time, is dangerous because it drastically reduces visibility. Yellow fog lights increase visibility and reduce eye strain, which is why effective fog lights are so crucial.
Although making the switch from white to yellow fog lights can be a small investment, safety should be your primary concern when driving. And, if yellow lights can improve visibility and reduce driving hazards, there isn’t any question.
