I have an 87 accord lx and am looking for some factory fogs or really any fog light set that will bolt up. Where can I get em?

Yeah I figured that's what I would end up doing. Do you have pics of it? Or any tips on making the bracket?
I don't think the factory fogs fit the bumper openings very well. If mine were to need replacing, I'd look for 2"x6" aftermarket fog lights. They integrate nicely. The factory fog light switch is very nice, however.

factory fogs on a 87 front end look more out-of-place than a lot of aftermarket fog lights IMO. so after market ones would be the way to go. but yeah, factory fog light switch is ideal
The factory fogs in North America are BOSCH Pilots 150. They do look a bit awkward but are era accurate.

Okay, yeah I should be able to get some 2x6s through work pretty easily, I'll do some searching and see if I can't just find the factory switch for sale and wire it up to aftermarket fogs. thanks for the input guys. And yeah after seeing some pics those factory fogs do look kinda odd.
get some 3rd gen lude fogs
also look out for the 1st gen legend they also got the correct era type foglights. i saw one parked the other day in front of a dental office so it must of been a old person car because it looked like it had low miles and it had factory fogs

I ordered a Pilot 150 from Bosch, this thing is massive.
It also looks like it only bolts from the bottom (to the bumper cover), shouldn't it be the other way around (to the bumper beam)?

it looks like you can flip the lens and reflector aassembly to mount it to the beam

this thing is too big. Maybe it only fits the 86-87 sedan-style bumper with the steeper rake?
Anyone have a pic or diagram of the factory mounting setup?
Mine has the 88-89 style bumper. All hatches 86-89 have the 86-87 sedan style bumper here in USA

its basically an L. they sit almost completely outside the bumper. I have the brackets around here somewhere if you are interested in pictures
Yeah please, I accidentally ordered 1 and I'd like to do a little more research before ordering the other one. This thing is like a rally car light

Have you seen my thread on the OEM fogs?

The brackets I have are for an 86-87 bumper tough.
Like you said, the Pilot 150 are massive.
I used to have BOSCH "Scouts" on my 89. They're not available anymore I think but the Nissan Pathfinder fog lights are exactly re branded BOSCH Scouts

They look very similar to my stanley lights

Well, this one if for 86-97 bumpers. The 88-89 should be similar anyway.
