Fog light relocation to grille
So I upgraded to the EVO front bumper.
Now I have the stock bumper with good fogs that I can't utilize. So here is my plan:
1. Cut the plastic around the stock fogs
2. epoxy this plastic ring onto the grille, under the headlight and between the turn signal and openings in the grill.
3. linex the grille
I haven't measured it out to see if they will fit......jeep is still at ORE until Friday......there might be obstructions behind the grille at this location that will make it impossible to accomplish.
But the theory sounds good to me. I can effectively use the stock harness to stock fogs and save a switch for even more lights!!!!

I like this idea...however, if you're going to be doing this, why not put the fogs in the bottom of the grill. Like in one of the slots, might be better than having a whole bunch of lights crammed together, just an idea...I'm thinking putting them in the bottom portion of the two outside slots might look good, and it's less cutting. Either way, i like the idea, go for it...and be sure to post pics when you finish!
