Found a pair of NOS vintage Bosch chrome fog lights with bumper mounting brackets, about 6" OD - lovely little things. But I also came across a pair of NOS chrome plated Cibie Super Oscar fog lights and one Cibie Super Oscar replacement spot (driving light) reflector/glass.

I've been wanting to put vintage rallye lighting on my IM, so one of these sets should do it; I'm leaning toward a Cibie fog paired with the Cibie killer spot beam. Only problem is the Cibies are REALLY BIG LIGHTS.

Even found a NOS Bosch installation kit with wiring, relay, switch, and instructions.

Jeez, I hate these esthetic decisions... Bosch would seem to be the politically correct instllation but man them Cibies are bitchin...

George, the technology of the day more or less demanded those larger lights...now it is considered a 'classic'look, and with bumper guards I'd think that either set will sit 'just right' to all eyes.

I think that when I was 'sperimenting with which lights and how many on my car, the lack of bumper guards made both my decisions look unfinished.

I was combining the aftermarket traditional amber lense little guys with a set of big-boy Marchals. I think there is one pic left in my file with one or the other, I think I dumped the photo with both sets.
