Yeah, and I quoted 2nd gen. duh! I should have said 1st gen. I do have a set of 2nd gen badges that I decided not to go with. But people have been doing this for a few years.

I sent you a PM with a link to were i got the fogs at. All the info below is also in the Pm but i figured i'd post it up here to incase anyone else is interested.


There a tight fit in the holes I actually had to jam them in there. They fit fine horizonally but vertically is where its tight but they will fit with no hacking or cutting. Unfortunatly my car did not come with fog lights so i had to make my own brackets comeing down from where the factory brackets hook up at. It just took a straight piece of aluminum and drilled holes to mount it and they bolted in the bracket that is supplied. 3 beef's that i do have with these lights are one the leds can hardly if at all be seen when the fog lights are on. Two is that it say's one of the 7 leds colors is white well it lies there is no white its a blue color not white. I had planned on halo headlights as you have and this is one of the main reasons i got these fogs so i would have a white ring at the headlights and the fogs. And my 3rd and final beef is that they said the lens is clear on the fog lights well as you can see in my pics its blue, kinda my own fault since the pic on the link i gave you it is blue but i was hoping that was just a mistake.

Also for the controler for the leds you will need to modify to get it into the car. If you set it up right and the wires very tight and just all hanging were you don't want them it will make it to the glove box but thats about it. I went and lengthed the wires and routed it up into the center console all the wires are tucked away neatly inside the car.

Hope this helps
Jon

I'm going with the 2nd gen ones as I have owned a few '70-'73 and love the emblems. Much more compact then the '69 emblems.
