Got the fog lights in. Boy are they beefy! All aluminum construction with glass lenses. Proceeded to take the light out of the bracket, cut all 4 dog-ears off each bracket with my dremel and then drill about 10 little holes around the small lip of the light holder. Then I put some black RTV on the back of the bucket the new lights came in and centered them into the existing fog light buckets that I took off the truck. When that dries I will run some short screws through the new buckets into the existing buckets. Nice part is the lights came with a H10 plug, so they plug right in to the existing truck plug! Both fired right up when I plugged them in. This may be the best $34 mod I have done!
These are the ones I bought:

Nope, no pics, but its pretty straight forward. Just take the lights out of the buckets they come in, which requires removing the adjustment screw and spring (like on our factory buckets), trim off all 4 "ears", drill small holes all around the "lip" of the bucket the lights came in. These will be used for small screws. Then I used a gutter nail and after using black rtv to glue the 2 together, ran the nail through the holes to keep the new bucket centered. After the RTV dries, run 4 or 5 screws throught the 2 glued together buckets, then reassemble everything.

Finally got the footwells in (as posted before), took some night shots all around the truck and inside so you can see the full conversion to LED (all links to all lights used in my build thread).

Wow, just wow! I can not believe how bright these are. One issue though, I cant get them aimed low enough. That will be taken care of with a longer bolt and the spring stretched out. My phone cant get good enough pics to post, I will try again tomorrow night. It takes a lot for a light/bulb to impress me, and these leave me speechless.
