Which one do you guys like?? any help would be awsome..thanks!!
don't do it. the previous owner of my car did this very same thing.
they aren't straight, and there's no way to make them straight really unless you fabricate some sort of plastic shim to go in between the fogs and the grill. the curvature of the grill makes the fogs point down and off toward opposite sides (opposite of cross-eye look).
the owner of my car before me left his job half finished, and its the biggest thing about this car that bugs me. they don't even WORK!
they might look nice from a small distance, but once you get close you see the grill for real. all i can say to the previous owner is FAIL.
you're best bet is to look for a nice set up through a reputable company, like street scene or something. I know I've seen some grills on ebay that are v6 grills with the GT foglights attatched, but i'm not sure how those are. v6mustangstuff.com sells a kit that has the elanor style set-up for like $300 or something like that... I'm probably gonna get that when I save enough.

look closly at the lights. they point outwards like stated you have no adjustment so you will not get much help out of them. in the old days mr. wick made some they were ok o guess. but with all of the made to fit kits, WHY?
That's how I did mine. I bought an extra V6 grille on ebay for $20. Two $10 lights from Walmart and an APC remote fog light relat kit for $7 (clearance). Just used a 5" hole saw on a drill press and made some brackets to hold the lights in and so that I could adjust the angle. You can't tell at all close up that it's a hack job. Wish I could have found 6" lights though.
