Default Adding extra lights?

Hello all,

First time MF.com poster

Okay, I just bought a 2006 Mustang, V6 with the Pony Package, all black. I saw that in the lower part of the front fascia, there appears to be enough space for another light?

I've seen a few tricked out mustangs that have a ton of exterior lights, but I don't want to be TOO ostentatious, i.e. so it still looks nice and subtle

There's a foglight on my dad's Yukon that looks "almost" the same size. Could I just buy one like that, or one of the right size, and bolt it in? Or are there lights made for that space?

Sorry if this has already been posted/posted in the wrong area, and thanks for any/all replies!

i would install a mustang foglight, to make sure you dont blow a fuse.
but i really have no idea, lighting is not my specialty.
i'm sure someone will help you out.

I guess I will have to wait to view it. It says I don't have access yet

I took a little electrics in my high school physics class, and I'm taking more electrics classes this year for engineering! Could be interesting!

If you have the stock pony package lights in the center of the grille dont put the any on the lower part of the bumper... and if you dont have the center lights look into those

I'm sure you could swap out the existing Pony fogs with any other similiarly rated fog (55 watts for 55 watts). The only issue then would be installation.
