Default Windshield brakets

I want to buy fog lights on my windshield, but the Mopar windshield light brackets cost 100$ !!!
I don't want to pay 100$ for 2 small pieces of metal...

Any suggestion to install fog lights at lower price?

the mopar brackets are expensive, yes. but they sit the lights lower and wider than anyother bracket that i've seen. i put a set, with piaa 525 lights, on my jeep and i'm very glad that i spent the money on the mopar brackets.

Happy for you, but I really don't want to pay 100$ for that!
Thanks

did you check out the 'show me your windshield lights' thread? i found it helpful in seeing the difference between what is out there. you could always make a set. they'd be real cheap then. i agree the mopar brackets are way over priced. good luck.

X2. The are more expensive but you get what you pay for in this case. I am very please with the way my lights sit on the mopar brackets. Your dealer may give you a discount. Mine did.

Don't you need to 'mod' the antenna with the Mopar brackets? I mounted mine with RR brackets, no antenna modifications needed and I like how they look.
