- 98 XLT 4WD
I have a 98 Explorer XLT and I will be swaping out the bumper with a new one for a 99-01 Explorer. I'm switching to the 99-01 foglights as well. I noticed that the foglight bulbs are rather different. The 95-98 explorers use a 993 type bulb which has 2 wires going to the plug and the 99-01 explorers have an H1 type bulb which only has 1 wire running to the plug. What can I do make the swap? I've found one article on this which involved cutting the coupling of one bulb and transplanting it on to the new one. This seems haggard to me and I'm not sure if I have the tools to pull it off and have it look clean. Any suggestion? This seems like a simple cut and splice or rewiring job, but I don't know a whole lot about wiring harnesses.
