93CutlassSupreme Posted May 22, 2005 Report Share Posted May 22, 2005 can someone post a picture of early International coupe foglights, from a distance, and how they are mounted and where? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin Posted May 22, 2005 Report Share Posted May 22, 2005 They mount with 2 bolts spaced out horizontally about 4 inches apart. I would think your car would have the mounting holes and wiring harness from factory, but being an '88 it may not since I'm not sure '88s got them. For what it's worth APC makes a cheap set that look almost identical to the originals, I believe the glass lenses and reflectors would actually work in the factory housings. Here's a pic of my CS with the aftermarket version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cutlsp Posted May 22, 2005 Report Share Posted May 22, 2005 nice dent in the passenger door panel. some people just can't control their car's doors and keep them from bashing the car next to them there should be a set of holes there for the fog lights but no wiring for it :?

Justin Posted May 22, 2005 Report Share Posted May 22, 2005 nice dent in the passenger door panel. Hmm, that's just a reflection, that door is pretty much dent free. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
93CutlassSupreme Posted May 22, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2005 i don't have mounting holes or a wiring harness do they mount to the bumper itself? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin Posted May 22, 2005 Report Share Posted May 22, 2005 Yeah, they mount to the aluminum part of the bumper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
93CutlassSupreme Posted May 22, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2005 damn, i don't know how to mount these lights then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

93CutlassSupreme Posted May 23, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2005 are the holes threaded? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cutlsp Posted May 23, 2005 Report Share Posted May 23, 2005 no they are not threaded they are simply holes drilled smooth. you have to use nuts and bolts to mount them. those holes make good ground points too just use a wire eye hole and put the bolt in it. they can be bolted in by bolts and nuts from the hard ware store. thats what i'm going to do to my combo lights i got for 35 bucks. they are retangular too so thats a plus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
93CutlassSupreme Posted May 23, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2005 but can the top of that aluminum bar be accessed to tighten up mounting nuts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cutlsp Posted May 23, 2005 Report Share Posted May 23, 2005 yes it can you just need a flat wrench that fits the bolt then turn the bolt into that that the way i found works best Also the back of that aluminum bar has a HUGE gap in it which if you reach up there and felt it you would realize it is plenty big enough to fit your hand in there :?

93CutlassSupreme Posted May 23, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2005 can i ground the lights themselves to the aluminum bar? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cutlsp Posted May 23, 2005 Report Share Posted May 23, 2005 i just told you it makes a good ground from what i've found oh well your still learning Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5speedz34 Posted May 23, 2005 Report Share Posted May 23, 2005 88's didn't get really any of the "fun" options. All that came along in '89 so the mounts won't be there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cutlsp Posted May 23, 2005 Report Share Posted May 23, 2005 88's didn't get really any of the "fun" options. All that came along in '89 so the mounts won't be there. so you mean i have a 89 front bumper? :oops: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GnatGoSplat Posted May 23, 2005 Report Share Posted May 23, 2005 The 88 we used to have had the holes in the bumper too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
93CutlassSupreme Posted May 23, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2005 my '88 doesn't maybe i'll mount the lights in the grille or something....they'd probaby last longer up there, away from water spray from the road Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
