Question Mounting Ebay fog lights

Just got a set of fogs from ebay for my new t/a nose and was wondering where I could get the mounting brackets for 93-97 T/a's?

Seems they cant really be mounted w/out the stock brackets.
Thanks in advance!

Are they OEM or aftermarket?

Did they come with brackets? Most of them that are aftermarket don't work with the factory brackets. When I bought mine, they had some aftermarket ones on, and it has some weird bracket. So now not only do I have to buy new OEM fogs, but find brackets too

They have a really small mounting bracket with each light but its meant to go in the stock locations.

I dont see that happening with these unless there some special way of doing them.
Looks as though I'll have to mount them on the bumper itself.

I would advise against this. If I were you, get under there and figure out how they're supposed to mount, or get OEM ones with the brackets from a junkyard or ebay. Don't ruin your bumper.

Yeah, I'll do some checking...

Guess I'll wait a bit before I put them on. I'm sure some people have these on there cars. There the LED halo kind and I've seen some guys with them on there cars. Maybe they'll chime in.

EDIT: Heres the link to what I got. Pics say these will work, lol.

i got those for my car, lol. I dunno how similar an lt1 bracket is to a stock ls1 fog bracket, but what i'm doing is cutting off the bucket wing kinda things on the side of the bracket, and gonna slip the bracket that comes with that onto the whats left of the stock one and drill it to hold it on. sadly though, my dumbass lost the brackets that came with the new fogs so now i need to reaquire them. if you still don't have yours mounted by the time i get those i'll do a write up.
