inexpensive modified-stock foglights for 1st gens

[N1446]

Price List includes,

Halogen L-shape foglight Bulbs for late model vehicles 17$ a piece
11x14 sheet of clear lexan from Home Depot 15$
100ft spool of 16 guage electrical wire 15$
foglight switch from 98 legacy gt

the tools i used include an angle grinder for shaping the lexan to match the original mounts and a drill for the holes to match the original mount holes and some sealant to keep the moisture on the outside

result, two high-power crystal clear fogs on the original mounts
I say they turned out pretty good and the wiring is basic

with any luck they wont catch on fire ! HaaHaaH !

looks good, do you have anymore pics of the install however. for sure want to do this

How come you're using blocks under the tires? Do you not have brakes and/or transmission to hold your car in place?

Fog lights look good. Did you still retain blinker function in the same housing?

So you just put a different bulb in the stock housing?

[N1446]

heay yeah for the most part i put a different bulb in the stock housing, i used a dremmel tool to carve a hole large enough to insert the bulb and then "snap" it in place, and turn the bulb so it stays secure

I still have the original lenses for the lights tho they are as faded and yellow as are the headlights so i made new lenses for them from a sheet of lexan

the blinker lights are relocated to the cornerlights and the car is on blocks because i have a new clutch to install and right now the ebrake needs replacing

this weeks has seen heavy rains too so as soon as it clears up i will lay out the install process, it is really quite simple, from start to finish is only like 2 hrs tops including the wiring

i made my corner lights into turn signals as well but kept the bottoms also cause i was afraid the corners would not be good enough by themselves

for some reason id be concerned about the heat that would give off having them on for so long especially considering there is no interminent break?
