Driving/fog light photos and installation

grego · #1 (**permalink**) 03-08-2013, 09:38 AM

I would like to install driving/fog lights on my Superformance Mark III and would appreciate some close up photos and instructions on various installs. I have seen a couple of photos with them on the quick jack brackets and inside the grill, but not enough detail to plan my installation. I am thinking of the replica Lucas SLR576 (5 3/4 inch) or the SLR700 (7 inch).

Grego...some photos of my install. Used 4" lights bolted onto a 1" square tube, running wires thru tube. Used "L" brackets at either end to hold bar. Simple lighted switch to left of steering column. Note: am having trouble uploading photos to this email. Will try again later. Thx Bill

Grego, I'm using Cibie Super Oscars on a small bracket on the quick jacks. I chose the location because my car has fans in the grill area and I wanted a vintage look. I'll try to post some pics that are close enough to see what I did.

Thanks, Lovehamr! They look great....I like the look and think this would be the least impact on cooling. i had penciled out something like your brackets and made my first attempt at building a template, but it didn't turn out so well.

Did you have someone build the bracket? If so, I would love to have them make a couple for me. If not, I'll go back to my shop and see if I can do it without wasting too much metal.

A big hello to all, with the automatic translator and French accent.

Here's what I've done myself on my FPS, with some simple parts, care and patience.
The objective is a very functional, but also aesthetic, I particularly cared for the details in this regard.
These two additional headlights seem to enrich the air intake area.
I paid particular attention to:
- Remove the headlights not to reduce the cooling radiator.
- Match the curve of the lighthouse with the oil hose to the radiator.
- Make all attachments that prevent vibrations.

Best regards from France.

Merci beaucoup, Saint Ho. I sent you a private message.

Very nice installation. What brand are your lights?

Hi.

I founded the lights in France, of coarse. The brand is HELLA.
They are very flat, the diameter is 16 cm, and they are also long rang lights.

I shall answer to your MP.

Best regards.

Saint Ho.
