My passenger fog lamp is busted on my 2000 Intrigue. I can get one from the dealer to the tune of $150 :shock:
Any ideas where I can get one cheaper? Salvage yards don't have them either. |

| You could always replace both with a set of aftermarket foglamps, for cheaper or keep praying youll find one in the salvage yards one day. |

Buick Regal foglights.
The reason the foglights aren't available in the salvage yard is because they are poorly designed, they always bust/crack open at the mounting points.
So far, my Buick Regal aftermarket (TYC) foglights are holding up well.
The only difference you'll run into is that the Intrigue fog lights have studs built into the metal bracket (which I might add break off very easily).
The Regal foglights only have holes where the studs would be on the Intrigue foglights. I didn't drill these holes out at all...I think I used a 1/4-20 bottoming tap (taper won't work, it'll hit the plastic housing before it taps the hole). Then just get some stubby 1/4-20 bolts, and some washers to space the bolt out even more, so it doesn't hit the plastic housing.
Install like you would install an Intrigue foglight. :cool:
