Default Fog light led

Can't figure out why the platinum has all led but the fogs? Anyway my LED replacement bulbs come in tomorrow I'll post pictures on how they look at night. Has anyone else replace the fogs with led plug n plays? and have you had good luck with them

I have read that the regular (factory) fog lights are much brighter. Maybe factory lights work better in fog who knows.

My new led for my fog lights are on there way from japan or china or ... I didn't order the resistance to cancel the lamp out message (I forgot!!) Can anybody tell my what is the resistance of that small harness, I know the resistance is a 10watts but I am searching to know the Ohms?

I couldn't understand why they put everything in led except the fog, I was thinking that they left this option for the Kingranch/Platinum truck (I have a Lariat...)

Thanks

I have a platinum with every conceivable option and it does not have the LED fog lights.

If youre putting white LED bulbs in the fog light housing theyre no longer fog lights...theyre just lights.

Most replacement bulbs are weak. I have HL3600 fanless Head light bulbs in my fogs. They are nice and bright.
