Re: Reinforcing repaired foglights with zipties/cords?

Scott,
What I have used for both my 9-3 and 9-5 foglights when their plastic brackets broke was to use the thin metal hooks that are used to hold the valance in place for vertical miniblinds. They are approximately 1.5-2.0"W and is thin sheetmetal thick. They are just thin enough to bend by hand but are strong enough to hold the foglight assembly in place. As long as you still have the original attachment screw points then drill a hole in the thin metal hook where the attachment screw would go into the body of the car and the foglight. That should hold it in place better than the original plastic mount. If you have one foglight that is damaged to the point where you can't attach it to the original foglight attachment point, use strong epoxy to glue the metal hook in place to the body of the foglight before attaching it to the body of the car at the attachment screw point. I hope I was clear enough to help you with your foglight problem.
Ben
