What the hell. Why not. Either all in or...
I run one on the back. Might as well get the "proper" mount.
Put me down for a set.
Cheers, Dion

Two down, eight to go!

The other two parts required are readily available. The light housing itself is about $30 and the wiring harness, we can get a group buy from Bowlsby going....

Would chime in on the GB harness, if it came into being.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Let's get the brackets done first. Jeff Bowlsby will knock out harnesses quickly...

Thanks for going through with the process.

***Update***My bad: I have a rear reflector ! No room for the fog light... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) Sorry. It's still a great opportunity to get a NLA part.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Hey Cone Dodger, that's my picture you have on your thread. No big deal. Just wanted you to know.

Have the exact set as pictured fog light and all, never installed

I also have a factory original rear foglight wiring harness. Had Bowlsby make me one years ago but got the original one somewhere from somebody later.

Good luck.

I need 5 of these to be spoken for before I can give the go ahead. And we are at 2/5 right now.

BTW: I've been contacted by two people who tell me they can do the part cheaper. The spec is a reproduction. I'm not interested in galvanized or thinner metal. This is a yellow zink plated reproduction part. If that is what you can do we can talk. Otherwise, no good... thanks though.

Rob this sounds like a perfect offering for 914rubber. Have you approached Mark to do a run of these and stock them?

Jeff,
Mark and I talk frequently by phone. In fact he once had a layover in Reno on Thanksgiving and had dinner with my family. I can approach him on it. I just thought it might be too small a market for him to get involved.

Update: I just called him and got VM. He must be flapping his wings.

Just two more to go. If I get 5/10, I'll put up the rest so we can have these available. PMB will sell them on their site.

This is the expensive bugger!

I know it holiday time. $ is tight.
Is there no one else to get this off the ground.
Hate to see Conedodger front too much cash
C'mon rear fog nerds! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
