iLLlegal Posted August 16, 2005 Author Share Posted August 16, 2005 ya installing the pilot lights...but it says you need the stock mounting bracket from the old fog lights..I have nothing?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nige Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 have you checked your local scrapyard? That's all I can think of. The brackets look pretty simple to make if you have some scrap metal lying around. Just bend it and drill some new holes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
88pathoffroad Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 If you buy new lights, they come with brackets you can probably use anyway. I'd try and see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lextronix Posted August 20, 2005 Share Posted August 20, 2005 ^Thats what I did. Foglights are small enough mount just about anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest pathy91 Posted August 21, 2005 Share Posted August 21, 2005 My 91 had no foglights. I had to create a bracket that mounted from the top of the bumper, under the plastic trim. There was alot of adjustment necessary to get it lined up with the bumper cutouts. It turned out great and looks OEM. Here is a pic: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedPath88 Posted August 21, 2005 Share Posted August 21, 2005 ^^^I did basically the same thing on my 88^^^ But I used a couple pieces of aluminum plate bent into an "L" shape. These are mounted to the bumper brackets to the outsides of the lights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest pathy91 Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 I used a bolt long enough to postition the bracket that came with the lights. I then placed a proper length of 3/4" Galv pipe over the bolt(but under the bumper) to act as a ferrule(just like gutter ferrules) and strengthen the connection.

offroad95pathy Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 If you want to blow about $55, buynissanparts.com has the OEM kit that includes the brackets, filler plates and all the hardware to do the job for both sides. OEM fog lites you can get for about $30 each from partstrain.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
