Fog Light Replacement
So, I got a new bumper, and didn't realize it didn't have mounting for my factory fogs. I imagine theres no quick bracket to attach somewhere to get my old fogs back in the game, but I like the idea of snagging a poison spider fairlead light bracket and adding some extra lights. Since doing the h4 headlight conversion, I really don't think I "need" extra light, but I like the idea of popping something low pointing in there I can use for crappy weather and when offroading with others. Any suggestions? And my real question is, are there any good light replacements that I can simply using the stock fog light wiring with?
And since I realize every light thread starts and ends with budget, I'm a cheapass; for aux lights that I feel may not really give any real benefit, I don't feel like shelling out more than 150 bucks for a setup. Unless it's for something cool like a rigid industries 10" led light bar

wow, those look like a great deal. But, I don't have fog light mounts of any sort. If I scored a fairlead or stinger type mounting bracket, is there any easy way to get these into some type of housing? or are they meant to be drop in 4" mounting only?

I think i threw them away but if I find them later I'll post a pic.
Im a little confused, what happened to your current bumper that you got a new one?
You should be able to just swap the old lights right to the new bumper, its just 3 or 4 screws that hold it to the factory bumper.

I should have clarified, by got a new bumper, I meant I replaced the factory one with an aftermarket. So I'll need some type of bracketing to get lights down there again.
They come with a mount but not sure how compatible it will be with an aftermarket bumper.

I just swapped my original Fogs for the Pilots, this weekend. they are WAAAAAAY better than the original. i followed one of the other threads and used the stock housing with the new Pilots, the fit was perfect.
