by bracket, do you mean the adjusting plate? If so, it was not a big deal. Actually my drivers side adjusting plate had 2 stripped holes so i went to a junkyard and found the only fox on the lot with a crushed passenger side, and mint drivers side with a brand new adjusting plate

They took a few hours to install, mainly because the corner markers did not fit correctly and I had to file out some of the holes in the fiberglass so the guides would fit correctly and tight. Eh not to big of a deal really.

Roland, by spring I am hoping to replace the fogs and when I do, I will be sure to let you know.

The halo is the little circle light area(? lol) in the lower inner corner of the main light assembly...If i described that correctly lol

Thats good, im hoping I will be able to see ok at night. My buddy got me some of the brightest bulbs, like ultra Sylvania or some crap...their bright as hell thats for sure. Considering the tint is not to dark, it shouldn't be to bad...I hope

aww man, I would but i have the rearend jacked up now cause the rearends coming out, and the nose of the car is about 6" from the wall of my garage, so I wouldnt be able to get a good shot of it. For reference heres th one on blueovalindustries website when they installed them on their car. For some reason these dont look smoked to me Or something about them is different, but they have the halo nonetheless

for the fog lights I would go to calmustang.com and get the clear ones that (look) smoked when they are not in use, but light up great when you need them too.

I just checked at calmustang.com and the fog lights I am refering to are called 79-93 Mustang Gt Black Beuty Fog Lamp Assembly Kit, it's about 80 dollars. I like them because they are supposed to put off the same amount of light as regular lamps.

How well do those lights work at night? Better or worse than stock, or about the same? Look good either way
