Hi Guys,
I just finished drilling (2) 6mm holes & (1) 3mm hole in by trunk to mount my "Rear Fog Light" factory accessory. I like it, makes my car different from all the others. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif) Here's a few pictures to show details of the U.S.A. issue rear fog lamp I installed. I got a Euro fog lamp assembly from Gustl (thanks Gustl-aka-Wolfgang) & put everything together using the satin black U.S. housing with the Euro lens because I thought it looked better. One of the brackets to mount is still available from Porsche, but the exterior bracket is NLA. The exterior bracket I got from Gustl was a surprise, it's made of stainless steel. I'll post a number of photo's in a few days showing lots of details & differences. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/popcorn[1].gif) Hope you guys enjoy. Tom BTW Pat: I measured a lot before drilling the holes. Attached thumbnail(s) Attached image(s) |

QUOTE To bad Pat doesn't have a rear fog light. Would have been one more thing for him to clean. Pat can't "handle" a rear fog light. Son, we live in a world that has rear fog lights. And those fog lights have to be guarded by men with award winning cars. Who's gonna do it? Pat? Pat Garvey? Tom has a greater responsibility than you can possibly fathom. You weep for Tom and you curse the rear fog light. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what we know: that Tom's newfound rust holes, while tragic, probably helped others win awards. And the rear fog lights existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, wins trophy's...You don't want the truth. Because deep down, in places you don't talk about at parties, you want a rear fog light. You need a rear fog light. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) Attached image(s) |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) Eric, you guys crack me up (IMG:style_emoticons/default/w00t.gif) I have created another unattainable accessory bling, bling, for must have CW's at any price by us sicko's (IMG:style_emoticons/default/popcorn[1].gif) First is was the $50.00 Saratoga roof now @ $1,000.00 bucks & now the priceless "rear fog lamp" (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) Let me see, I've got a trunk rack, Saratoga roof, Rear fog lamp, now all I need is a 3.6 6er motor. When will the madness end??? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rocking nana.gif) Tom BTW: I'll be a hit on Woodward Ave during the Woodward cruise this August. I will stay out of Detroit trucking this kind of bling, bling. |
