    No. I just cut the brackets to fit the hole. What part did you cut?

    They are sealed. The fusion has them uncovered. I saw a guy with an excursion I think that fabricated them inside the OEM fog light. Some guys do that with the blazer fog lights on tacomas. But they are hard to find.

    Great, thanks.

    These seem like a great option and are pretty cheap, thanks for the write up!

    Looks like they're a vendor here to which makes me feel more comfortable dropping some extra change on them if I go that route. Would really like to see some pictures installed and light output

    I have them and love them!!! They go great with my retrofit that I also got from TRS. I got them from @TRSAndrew at their main store in Atlanta when I was living there. They are top notch even when I had a problem with a ballast they replaced it no questions asked. It was nice and worked out well.

    Here's morimoto xb fogs lights only. I had them adjusted too high I've since rectified that. They are wider than the stock fogs and can project much farther. Both these photos are from the same spot. You can see the fence. To the left.

    Stock fogs. Can't see the fence.

    Precisely what I was looking for. Thank you @JohnNP for the pics. Looks like I don't even need to try and work some TBSS lights like I was going to initially.

    You're welcome. They were fairly easy to instal once you got all the fender shit out of the way. You do have to put the plug pins in correctly. LEDS are polarity sensitive. I screwed up one and trying to take it apart was impossible. So I recommend testing with the bare pins in the receptive first THEN go ahead and put it together once you're sure how they go.

    Yea, more and more aviation lights are going to LED and it's something I'm not used to quite yet. In the past it was just plug and play without checking polar it and all this LED stuff with cars on up is starting to catch on.

    It was something I got really familiar with over the past two days putting LEDs inside the interior of the truck switched to the overhead lights. That damn polarity. Lol.
