Poll: Fog Light Damage

[BMart]

I heard a grumble about lights that get mounted in the two front corner fog light pocket areas; that the front tires chuck rocks into the unprotected backside of the lights and damage the light wiring, heat sinks, or housings. I'm curious if this is a more common problem that may be going unchecked. Check the back of your fog lights, is there any damage? How many miles have they been installed?

I've got 10k miles and no problems.

Took mine off a month ago or so. No damage to mine at all. Look new. Around 40,000 miles before they came off.

 

[Bigeffr]

mine look good probably 10000 miles on them

That's great news to hear Ruby considering I'm buying them!

No issues with the current ones I have mounted in there as well.

As a side note, the KC Cube kit has a shield that protects the lights from rocks, so I never had any damage from rocks when I was running that setup.

if i remember correctly, i dont think it was rocks, but the aluminium heat sinks pitting.

My only damage has been water related........ 15k and when I pulled it to send back only mud from the last offroad run.

I have Rigid's in these openings and they have some pitting, not too bad, but no damage due to crap hitting them from behind.
