Ill be gettingmy front bumper.....soon? I know that i could order the fog lights from nissan parts. But i was wondering if anyone else has another option? 250 for two lights is a little much i think. I still may get them, but id like another option.

I did email shrock works weeks ago, but never heard back from them on the other options they could recomend, i figured they should know what else can fit there! But i figure they havent gotten back tome yet because they are hard at work getting my order done!

Any ideas?

I am not sure Jim will know what other lights would fit.

When he was designing the bumper he asked about the foglight holes and decided to make the holes to fit the stock lights.

That being said, I am sure that you can fit non stock lights in there. They would just have to be about the same size and you'll have to come up with some mounting method.

When I get home I'll measure the size of the opening and just look for a round light closest to that size.

Thanks dude. You beat me to the punch, i was going to ask how big the holes in the shrock bumper were. Thanks again.

Cheap skate! MC

 

[Mark]

Cheap my ass ya punk! If i can get away from spending 250 and only spend 150, ill take it.

Wow,

I was thinking of only spending $40 plus the factory Nissan switch. Pennies screem when they see me while nickles and dimes just faint :toothy5:

Of course this is the most I've ever spent modifying a vehicle :drunken:

the factory set up is super terrific, has a nice switch and the lights are fantastic. it is worth it. be hard to find something to fit that hole. MC

"be hard to find something to fit that hole. MC" Thats the story of my life.......poor gals.......
Not sure how to make sense of what i just typed......but i thought it was funny in my head....


Turtle. Fill me in on what your going to do. What lights are you getting? Give me some details dude. How the heck are you going to get em to stay in?

MC would remove the bracket that holds the lights, Take a hammer (Rubber) and smack it ti match outside of tube it mounts in. (Just the bottom part) re bend the tabs that hold the light so that they line op to mounting holes. Now put it in the hole with bottoms up (So light hangs in rather than sets in, (To avoid rust holes) Then, mark for holes and make two at outer edges. Mount the bracket and then install the light and wire it up. Wait for dark and adjust, then say, sheeet, I shoulda bought the factory lights! Then go to Yournissanparts.com and give up the $250 and they will still fit as you did not dick up anything important! He hee. MC

Oh come on this is too easy:


Yep, poor gals, something so small will never fit that hole...

 

[Mark]

More like such small holes will never fit that thing!


Anyways, back to some optional lights............

 

[Turtle]

mcampana,

I was just going to pick up a cheap set from Walmart or an auto store. Wasn't sure which ones yet. The hole is about 3-7/8" or something like that I think. I was going to mount something like MC said, or maybe form up some 1/8" steel for mounts that I have sitting around (little to no flex then). I am going to use the top two holes of the original bumper light mount to screw in to.

 

[Muzikman]

The opening is just about 3 3/4"

i asked shrock about that myself. they sell PIAA lights on there site that fit those holes. just call and ask them.
