Just whipped these together friday. Pretty straightforward project. Little jb weld and a bunch of dremel time.

Basically just cot out enough of the housing to drop the projector in. First i cut a hole in the center of the lence for the projector lens to poke through which is helpful for getting it centered and aimed when the mounting takes place. I just rested the projector in the lens and dropped the fog housing onto it. I then was able to epoxy it in place. First with a couple dabs of JB kwik, then with a couple full on goober coats of regular jb weld.

The ccfl rings are mounted to aluminum plates I made with clear epoxy. I wanted an even glow effect so I buffed the aluminum to a neutral sheen and left the remnants of the reflector surface in the fog light alone. Y then frosted the lenses by lightly sanding the insides with 800 grit. I also too that opportunity to sand down the markings inside the lens.

Lemme know what you think...

That's pretty cool. Are the projector lenses normally exposed like that?

Yeah, those projectors are weatherproof, theyre designed to be used alone, fully exposed. I sealed them up with the other lens to keep everything nice and protect the ccfls.

I did it like that for a few reasons. Partly because the space was limited. Partly because the fog light lenses were shot and partly because i kind of like the look.

They look pretty cool. My fogs have all blistered on the inside so I have to do something with them - I doubt it will be anything as ambitious as this though, nice job.

thats pretty awesome..id be interested in seeing them at night

Getting pictures to look right would be a challenge. Ill have to talk my photog buddy into giving it a shot.

glare is to be expected to an extent with night shots

Looks great Randy, makes me wish I'd have kept my old fogs so you could do this to them....

Daytime pics. Excuse how dirty the car is. I just got back from BIR and it got sapped on pretty bad. Plus working on diagnosing this no boost issue..

looks very unique and one of a kind
that being said
to someone who doesnt know jack about Bonneville's it looks stock...nice job! i love it

Or send yours to him and run without for a week or two..

Saw your thread on HidPlanet.
Turned out nice

That's an option, but these are dang near new and I'd prefer to leave them as-is.

Come on Ed,
im sure andrew has some spare ones laying around he'd sell you for pennies on the dollar

EDIT. then that way youd have the stockers that are almost new..and these custom stockers..youve got fog lights that fit different driving conditions and attitudes..how can you say no?

Love the way those look. All these idea's give me things to do during the winter.

They look sharp both in the day and night shots!

How well do the projectors work for providing light driving down the road? I'm interested in doing something with mine so that I've got something relatively functional down there rather than just stock lights...

If you have halogen headlights, the blazer projectors with hid really help out a lot. If you already have his projector headlights, they're more for looks than anything. They add foreground lighting and actually reduce my distance vision.
