Or better yet, a set of fox body from a GT...
They have the right size and have a stud like design for mounting, that would allow for easier hook up.
And the lens is glass, easy to clean. Retail is cheap too, $40 a pair or lower.

Well clearly since it hasn't been done by 5,000 other mustang owners it must be "rice".
Amazing. The obsession with "rice" by people in this forums makes us all seem incredibly insecure (not to mention 12 years old).

eleanor "style"
no hood bump, though

Man, I am open to all mods if pulled off with some fore thought
and not just cobbled together, like the guy who mounted his CB
on the side of the center console then found out his glovebox would
not open.

I think if they fit it would look real good, do a quick nonfunctional mock-up to check it out.
And to call it rice is just ridiculous, but I have noticed some of the people here drink way too much Haterade.

My only problem with it is that i don't think the stock GT fogs will fit in the stock GT lower grille

I always liked the idea of having them behind the top grille, cause its gives a stealth look in the day without depriving you of fogs at night or in fog

Its amazing how easy it is to make you all bitch and moan over a picture of rice.

Anyways, here is a picture of a Eleanor kit with the fogs in the bottom.

Maybe if you got the GT/CS front bumper/fascia, the air dam is much bigger and may fit the fogs I would think.
