just to have a record on this board, i am in the process of installing driving lights where the fog lights go. i got some well-prepared grills from korjo. the lights mentioned in the attachment, made by Pilot, are indeed available from Auto Zone. About $45. I had the brackets made at a local shop. I'll let you know how it turns out.

Good morning one and all. For those of you installing Pilot lights, you can mount them using the stock original fog light brackets.
You need to enlarge the holes in the mounting bracket that is already on the Pilot light. Then you can use the stock mounting allen bolt, that means you do not have to remove the front bumper or lower front valance. Sorry I don't have any pics, I will take some next time I install Pilot lights on one of the cars. Also for those of you wondering, Porsche did make a clear driving light for the 914. Check this ebay auction for a set. I had a set in my hand at LA swap meet and asked the seller how much, $550, thanks I set them back down on the table. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAP...item=2458950890 Also I have a foglight switch for the 914. Let me know if interested. CCLINLETTHEREBELIGHT |
