Will gen 1 fog lights fit gen 2. They seem nicer or cleaner. They look whiter and the gen 2 are on the clear side. Can I just swap them out or will I have to mess with the wiring
yes - the dimensions are the same - but the mounting it different, so you'll have to rig something up.

No well its not when they are on that I see the round part. I'm just talking about the look of it in the day time. How the gen1 have more reflection off of it and the gen 2 only on the circular part in the middle. Well I'm just going to try it and take before and after pics. See how it looks and if it doesn't look too god then no harm done, they aren't super expensive.I haven't seen a gen 2 with gen 1 fogs, lets see how it goes.
In case you wanted to see pic's of the fogs before buying..
The fogs are different... You could put the gen2 in the gen1 but you will have a gap in the top outer edge because the gen2 have a sharper curve. With the gen1 having a more rectangular shape there's no way it will fit in the gen2 bumper.
The squareness or the chrome inside? Yeah but picturing it and seeing it actually on is diff, just wanted to see if it really should stay gen 2 fogs on gen 2, but guess it wont happen
Damn. I was all excited.Thanks for the info
thanks for the info!
No problem, I had this new gen2 fog from years back when I wanted to switch my 2000 LS over to round fogs only to find it would'nt work. I only paid $5 for it so no great loss. You may be able to take apart the lens and paint the inner black surround silver to give it the brighter appearance you are looking for. I will try taking this one apart and if it works I will post a pic.
