I just ordered a fog light package from my local Chevrolet place to go in my 08 Tahoe, I was wondering what size bulb it uses? When I had my 08 Silverado they didn't have a HID bulb out for it at the time and I siliconed a 880 bulb into place and it worked out great. My HID's came from HID gate so I'm hoping to order from them that way my lows and highs will match perfect!:Handshake:

Thanks,

The fogs are bulb 5202 on the Yukon... I'm assuming they are the same for the Tahoes. The 5202 HIDs can be hard to find, but I know that the sponsor here sells them and so does DDM Tuning.

I dont know how the new 5202 hid's are but I got my fogs done last year before the 5205 came out..The stock fog lense is made of plastic instead of glass so theres a possibility to burn through the lense..Mines did using a h3 bulb which was the smallest at the time..Bought a glass fog from Ebay cut both housing and jb weld the original housing to the new glass lense..I know it sounds a like a long project but it really only took an hour..It took longer to wait for the jb weld to dry..lol..Hope it helps

what about Z71 fogs?


I got a Z71 with HID's in my fogs you have to use a certain size bulb ( which i forgot what size i used but can look tomorrow) it fits right in there and you have to either customize the piece that holds the bulb in there now to fit the HID or silicone it

I ordered a 880 HID bulb and plan to silicone it in when my fog light kit comes in. I did this on my Silverado and it worked great. When I first heard of using silicone to hold a bulb in I thought it was a little redneckish but actually worked really well!
