Truck in question, my 79 C20 Cheyenne. I recently sold my chrome brush guard to a site member, it was where my fog lights were mounted. Now I have no place to mount the lights. I have considered bolting them to the front of the frame right below the bottom of the bumper, but I think that looks like too much of a 4wd thing on a 2wd. I'm most likely going to be putting on the stock shape grille in the future so I have considered mounting the lights behind the grille, in the bottom corners, similar to the 83 trucks blinker location, allowing the fog light to be behind the bottom corner "egg crates" of the grille. Has anyone ever done that before? Has anyone also used the chrome front bumper from the site store that has the round fog lights built into the bumper? I am curious to see how the light-in-bumper setup or the light-in-grille corner setup would look. Pictures are welcome as well as other ideas or setups.

I do not have pics, but the lower the lights are the better if they are for fog. I have done my own setup in the bumper by cutting out a section and making a mounting bracket so they could be adjusted. They turned out nice and very functional. This next time I think I am just going to buy the bumper with them in it, since I need a new bumper, or make my own front bumper with them in it, haven't decided yet.

Thanks Bake. Ide really like to see and hear others ideas before I decide on a final solution.

I have a 85' 4x4 and my fog lights are mounted on top of the bumper near the middle,

One of my buddies used to have some six inch KCs mounted kind of like this:

Or maybe an LED light bar could be mounted in one of these areas, behind the grille.

We went from 2 headlights, then 4 headlights, then 2 = 2 headlights and now we are at 4 pissed of headlights. That just made me laugh out loud in the doctors office. Hahaha!
