ok, how do i get these fog light covers to stay in the damn bumper ?

are they removable ?

so far i have two verticle prongs that slide up into slots at the top of the fog light hole, and another tab that slides into a slot..... nothing clips in place, and the stupid things fall out.....

is there a clip for this ? the dealer couldnt find anything.

thanks

There should be a hole for a bolt that goes through in one corner and connects to the car. I still need to figure out the size so I can install mine.

i just put a screw through the hole and a nut on the end of that.

i saw the hole, but there is already a bolt in the mounting bracket that holds the light to the plate.... get a longer bolt ?





ha ! and the holes dont line up

u have to drill a small hole in the bumper than use a long screw, do not use the hole for your fog lamp to mount, drill a hole beside that.

Yes it does. I drilled a small hole then used a wood screw. I can take them on and off in literally five minutes.

/\/\ My Ebay mesh covers came with a long-ass wood screw that I had to put directly thru the bumper. Simple, yet effective.
Screw was approximately 4in. long.

So I can either get a 4 in wood screw that goes into the bumper or I can drill a hole and use long bolt and nut. Thanks guys.

2 inch is all you need. Your also going to have to drill either way. The fog lights have a metal bracket that sits behind the bumper cover to hold the fog lights in place. You won't be able to get the screw through the metal plate by just trying to screw it in.
