Here's my fog lights

You can edit the posts and not need to post a new post....


Oh OK!

Mike--thanks--I tried to edit it but just got the red "X" each time. The only way the picture would "do" is by itself.

I'm going to reccomend to Theron that we start a "delete" function along with "Edit" Sorry to clog up the thread!---Jack

Here's a picture of the Marchal fog lights I installed on my Speedster. I found them on Ebay---likely repros but good ones. I went with a Hella switch---looks good on the dash and has a little light inside the switch that comes on when the fog lights are on. Also I got what was advertised as a "heavy duty wiring kit" for fogs--it included a relay and a seperate fuse.

Getting ready for Carlisle!---Jack

Jack - I found that when you 'edit' a post that includes a picture, you need to re-enter the picture before re-submitting your edited post.

Your car looks cool with the driving lights!!

Peace - Out!

Looks good, Jack. See you in Christiansburg!

Yes we , Opps!! OK... I need to be able to delete my double postings...

Someone's been cleaning the posts during recess!

Now that really bugs me, Mike ;-)

Some of us need to delete our single posts too!---Jack

Looking good Jack. I am trying to make plans for Carlisle. Hopefully see you there.

Marty-very nice JPEG. Car is perfect!

Jack, looks great.

How did you mount the fogs? And did you wire directly from the battery. More details please. I have the same ebay ones also with a relay and switch sitting in my things to do box. I will get to it soon.

Remember Cary warned us about a fix on these e-bay Marchals. Something about inner wiring can short out and we just need to add some insulation. Just search fog lights and that thread will come up.

Cheers

Dave--here's a picture of the mounts i used. Someone posted this same picture and where to buy them but I can't locate it or my paperwork so I can't tell you where to get them. Maybe someone will chime in here with where to get the mounts. They are expensive--more than I paisd for the lights! Anodized grey aluminum and well-made.
Many folks including Becks drill the fiberglas bumper and have good luck so consider that too.

I wired them into the ignition so they will come on only with the ignition on.

A diagram came with the wiring kit and there are many diagrams here---do a search.

Yes--I did the precaution which was advised---added a piece of rubber inner tube material between the wires inside and the back cover of the lights.

I do still need to see what bulbs the Marchals use so I can get a spare. Hope this is helpful----Jack

Those are NLA brackets they sold for 356B (Will also fit A). I tried to post the URL, but NLA shows no brackets nor fog lights now.

They DID have a kit that had the brackets, lights and relay in one package, but it doesn't come up in the "search" function now. I had it bookmarked, but it no longer works.

Bummer.

Thanks Jack and Dennis,

Yes the NLA brackets, pricey for me and they will not fit my bumper brackets anyway, for some reason mine are very thick.

I think I will go the drilled bumper route.

Jack,
Are you coming to Morro Bay? If so give me a call and let's see if we can work out time to meet on the road and travel out there together. Cal is coming from Oklahoma but leaves a couple of days after I do.

Happy Trails,
Dusty and LMS

Hey Dusty--man,you do get around! We would love to get to Morrow Bay this year but I am covered up selling businesses right now and with the hosing I'm taking in the market I can use the money.

I am hoping,and think it will work out next year for Morrow Bay--I just have to find out if the "left coast" characters are as looney as I believe they are from seeing their antics on this site. Musbejim, the scout sent from CA, certainly was when I met him at Carlisle last year so that's maybe a preview :).

We are driving to Carlisle this spring and are already making plans for caravaning through Tennessee and Virginia with a few regulars.

---Jack

Hey, wait a minute!

I don't remember MUSBJIM being "looney".....

A little foreign looking, maybe...(I say that as a born in New England Yankee who views anyone not from New England as a little "foreign looking" - that goes for Mitt Romney, too.)

I do admit that many of us "East Coasters" kinda wondered if he was a West Coast scout ship of sumthin.......

We're getting more West Coasters coming to Carlisle this year, so one could ponder whether his visit was a success........

(GO Pineapple-Man!!)

PEOPLE OF EARTH....ehhhh, I mean CARLISLE!!!!!! -- Stand away from the egg sammiches and your lives will be spared!!!!

My re-con mission at Carlisle proved that species of East Coast Earthlings make poor attempts to mask their superior sensory attributes. This was manifested by various shapes of head apparel. Consider the following;

(1) Carbon-based life-form Tom DeWalt possessed head apparel with sunglasses mounted on top (apparently to protect the additional set of eyes on top of his head).
(2) Earthling John 2-Bolts required a chapeau large enough to encase his ginormous brain.
(3) My attempt to fit in with the normal flora was successful with my subtle pineapple adornment.

...on the other hand....

The West Coast Freak show was much less subtle with their blatant disregard for peaceful co-habitation.

(1) The swarthy droid in the center of this picture was of obvious nefarious origin. His minions refer to him as Vince.
(2) Two of Vince's mindless minions flank him. The general populace considers these cretins simply as A**HOLES (and rightfully so)!!!
(3) This threesome is known as the 'Axis of Evil'

I will continue my mission amongst the unsuspecting masses at the next Carlisle SOC gathering...BWAAAAAAA HAAAAAAAAA

I thought it was "the a$$es of evil"

Each time I see that pic, these comes to mind:

Lane and Bill are both correct...
