Hella 550 fog/driving lights

Do these things actually fit in the bumper. My wife wanted them so when they arrived I figured just cut out the little square punch out and stickem in. Really didn't believe it would be that easy but how much of that little punch out do you have to cut???

Do you have a 75 or 76 914? The 550 rectanguler lights may be a bit larger then the knockouts you're talking about. Have you tried to find a set of stock fog lights?

Aaron, aren't your lights the 500's?

They are slightly larger than the cutouts. I got these because they were available at AA and my wife found them on sale or something at JCwhitney. I you know who has the brackets that would certaily help. Although I would really like them to be inside instead of out. Thanks

I mounted mine using a piece of 1-1/2" angle iron sandwiched between the botom ofthe front bumper and the top of the valence. I cut a shallow V in one edge to match the slight lip on the bottom of the bumper and countersunk 6 #8 flathed allen screws to secure it.
