I did it to my 02, I used 5 inch Pro-comps. If I had to do it again I would have went larger like 6 inches.

Here is what you need:
-some bulk metal strips (you only need about a foot)
-some automotive wire conduit
-12-16 gauge wire
-light relay
-self-tapping screws
-assortment of butt caps and connectors
-tremclad rust paint
-nylon straps
-light switch (I used a KC foglight switch)



Measure the distance from the rad support to the grill support, cut the metal to fit ( I centered my brakets excactly inbetween the headlights and ford emblem on the grill) and make your bends, pre-drill holes on the metal brackets and grill support for the fog lights, bolt down the lights throught the grill supprt and bracket, use your self-tapping screws and attach the bracket to the rad support, wire the lights and run your wire conduit under neath the bracket and attach with nylon straps ( you will also notice I grounded the lights on top of the brackets) run your wires to the battery/relay/switch and yer done.
