Im about to start my fog light project so it'll be ready to go for winter.
I can get the wiring done no problem and i have a switch or i might just pick up an oem one if i can find it.
My issue right now is how to mount them, thats where im going to ask for someones help.
Here are some pics of them, any ideas will be taken into consideration on how to mount them

Update 8/21
Mounted to see how well they fit and its a perfect fit. Next is to cut openings in the fog light covers so that it will act as a shroud for the projectors. Im taking my time with that portion since i only have one set and dont want to mess up

Update 8/28
Finished for now, they work pretty good but now i need some yellow bulbs.
Had to take off the fog light covers due to not being able to put the projectors back enough
here are a couple finished pics. the driver side one is slightly crooked which i'll fix later but still works no problem

Re: DIY-Fog Light Projectors

Thought about using some civic fog lights and mounting these on them. the lense of the civic fog lights would also act as a protector for the lense of the projectors from rocks etc.
...or only other option is to fab up some means of L mounts to mount them to the bumper/grille.

Re: DIY-Fog Light Projectors

Im thinking of using pieces of my old headlight lenses cut to size and molding them into my fog light openings for protecting the projectors. I thought about L brackets but they've always seemed too flimsy for my liking

Re: DIY-Fog Light Projectors

should have retrofitted some blazers into some civic fogs .. would have been easy and relatively cheap.

Re: DIY-Fog Light Projectors

This will be cheap as i got the entire headlights for 20 and blackhoused the backing and sold that and the lenses for 30 so projectors were pretty much free. its looking like im going to do some L brackets, i'll have an update in a day or two

Off-topic but what lip is that?

I like how they look in the bumper as is. Shame you can't keep them like that, lol.
