How are your wires ran in the front? Like after they leave the fog light itself, I'm looking to hook a set up to my truck and I don't know where to run the wires? After they leave they firewall going to the light, I don't know how to run them so they are not in the way of anything.
I made a bracket to mount these to the radiator support. I equipped them with the HID H10 kit from HIDExtra. I wired them via a ford fuel tank switch and a relay.
I used FlushMount LED 30watt for Fog / Driving Lamps.
I drilled 1/4” holes & zip tied them just Incase they didn’t last or I didn’t like them plus I wasn’t cutting ANY components OR butchering my bumper.
They really helped illuminate the road.
I have 5000k Halogen HeadLamp Bulbs in New OEM Headlamps so the color is fairly close between the two.
OEM Ford Fog Lights shown. 1995 Ford Explorer Fog Lights installed on the 95 F-150 Eddie Bauer and factory Ford Fog Lights on the 95 F-150 Lightning. Realize the lower valance isn't practical with 4 X 4s. Worth noting, used to experience brake pedal fade on the 1995 F-150 Eddie Bauer each Summer coming out of the Eastern Sierras mountains until I installed the lower valance.
Ford late 70s early 80s OEM Fog Lights installed on the 1977 Ford F-150's OEM grill guard, referred to as "Catcus Smasher".
Brown Dog KTM,
Thank you for the kind OBS compliment, much appreciated.
Marksman76,
The lower Valance I got from LRS (866) 507-3786 and checked their website, there two versions offered both made by "Cervini's" and there referred to as a "Lower Air dam". They have one for $ 229.99 and the other one for $ 169.99. The 95 Eddie Bauer's fog lights I got out of a local junk yard, there off a 1995 Ford Explorer and there Ford OEM fog lights, but they are all plastic. When I got them they were a little cloudy and yellow, so I had to buff them out to bring back their brilliance. Have noticed that about every three years they need buffing again. Ironic, this past weekend I sourced off eBay a pair of Ford OEM fog lights made by Bosch that have the glass lenses, so they don't turn cloudy and yellow. My 95 SVT Lightning came from the factory with fog lights, they are also made by Bosch and have glass lenses. The Lightning is pretty much all stock, with the exception of changing the rear gearing from factory 4:10 to 3:73. Did that to reduce RPMs at highway speeds.
I typed this reply earlier, then went to post it and for some reason it didn't post, odd. This coming weekend, hoping to install an illuminated ignition bezel on my 77 F-150. That was a recent topic post in the 73-79 forum, so I was lucky enough to source the illuminated ignition bezel from eBay, which is from a 1966 Ford Thunderbird, supposedly the 66 Ford Thunderbird ignition fits the 1973-79 Ford F-Series trucks.
