stock fog light mounting (1989)

Post by Xplitive »

I have an '89 that has fog light brackets on it but is absent the actual lights. Picked up some marchals a while back that also came with brackets.

How in the heck do the lights mount to the bracket?

Picture would be most helpful and greatly appreciated.

The brackets that are on the truck don't really seem to give clearance from either the grill or the big vertical rubber thingy. The bracket on the marchals appears to have a previous owner modification that added and moved a mounting hole up, possibly to get more clearance.
thank you in advance!

Had 3 complete pairs of different style brackets with the waggy. Stuck with the ones already mounted in order to not create more work removing the bumper. appears at some point someone was trying to bend them horizontally for mounting (could have been this guy). Brought them into a more vertical position and everything fits and works. Promptly Overheated a lense and had it crack ala a nice “pop” sound.. original marchal set eeeff me..

I have a aftermarket set of lights. The Marchals seem a little light weight.
