Hello all! I own a 2010 Ralliart and I'm far up north and lets just say the last winter kicked the crap out of my car and I will not be putting it through that again ;( . Anyways I guess fog lights getting damaged from pressure washers or small rocks on the highway are common on these housings. Well mine are smashed right out. And let's face it dealership charges WAY to much for housings. Not a chance im paying 600$ for lights again. I dont even use them! Is there a replacement out yet like a straight mesh / cheaper housing somewhere on the internet/ delete kit. ANYTHING even if someone wants to sell me theres for cheap! help haha and would much appreciate your suggestions! :):)

i have been looking for the same for a long time to get more air flowing through. but only option so far is to take some wire mesh and mount it yourself. if you search there are a couple of people that have done it before

Yeah well I am used to it being a service tech and covering All of Manitoba, Saskatchewan and N.W Ontario as well as work in 2 of the Territories doing stuff on a lot of the Native Reserves and stuff over the past decade you gotta adapt. My furthest spot I had to go was Rankin Inlet for the CIBC bank there as it is 1100 km north of Churchhill Mb. LOL ! Had to pull out the old thermal mask.

Do you do any iceracing up there on the lakes? I keep forgetting to take pictures as it is hard to find someone to go with me to stand on a frozen lake at -40 plus the windchill to take a picture of me sliding around the corner of a temp track at over 100 km /hr.

Have you posted up any pics of your car yet?

yeah haha thats a lot of travelling! And i haven't found anywhere nearby that does it, in the long run i would like to enter the targa im workin on gettin a performance and competition driving course done. That'd be pretty sweet to get it in an ice race too id forsure give that a try. And I havent posted any pictures yet im waiting on some rims and that chrome grill piece is getting painted profesionally so once i get her shined up n put together ill snap a few pictures.
