yowo Posted November 8, 2009 Report Share Posted November 8, 2009 Has anyone installed fog lights to the Shelby Gt ? If so can you let me know which kit to buy. I would like to install them to the lower portion of the bumper where some are adding the brake cooling kit. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2007_Shelby_GT Posted November 8, 2009 Report Share Posted November 8, 2009 See "Brake duct and driving light" sticky thread at top of forum. This is the Shelby kit that goes below the bumper along with the lower grill. Sam AKA: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wnenn Posted November 9, 2009 Report Share Posted November 9, 2009 I used 2006 "Freestyle" driving lights and put them behind the grille on my G.O. SGT-C. The electical connector is a collision repair part. A little bracket fab and your are in business. The area behind the bumper is full of intercooler and pumps and stuffso there is no room for lights and brake ducts and stuff. These work well and were very easy to install.

SHELBYBRO Posted November 10, 2009 Report Share Posted November 10, 2009 I put mine under the bumper as well. I didn't want to cut into the honey comb inserts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you ever decide you want to they're cheap and keep a set in reserve for later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
COBRA SCOTTY Posted November 10, 2009 Report Share Posted November 10, 2009 I WENT OLD SCHOOL STYLE WITH A STREET SCENE UPPER GRILL AND FOG LAMPS COMBO. EASY TO INSTALL AND PROVIDES AWESOME LIGHTING WITH A IONIZED YELLOW 85 WATT FOG BULB. I USED THE OEM FOG LAMPS MOUNTED THEM INTO THE STREET SCENES GRILL. IT USES YOUR STOCK FOG LAMP WIRING AND SWITCH ALREADY THERE ON YOUR HEAD LAMP ROTOR SWITCH CONTROL. INSTALLED IN ABOUT 1.5 HOURS BY MYSELF.

wnenn Posted November 10, 2009 Report Share Posted November 10, 2009 Where did you purchase the lights ? I googled Freestyle foglamps and bought them online for like $55 each. The adaptor was $16 from the local ford Dealer. Stainless steel bolts and aircraft locking nuts an nylon standoffs from Lowe's were used to adjust the angle on both cars. I've had thughts about moving the lights on the blue car to where the ones are on the G.O. car to make them the same. Just haven't done it yet and the filler panels are like $68 each.

SHELBYBRO Posted November 10, 2009 Report Share Posted November 10, 2009 I put my fog lights in the middle in front of the lower grill. Kind of gives it an ELENOR look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wnenn There is no intercooler or pumps behind the bumper. The KB is the only setup that will not let you put the driving light/brake duct combo on the car.

If you are wanting to install the lights for functionality, save your money. For the most part, they are for looks only as they are so low to the ground they really serve no purpose for lighting. This will be the case no matter what kind of lights you use as long as they are mounted below the bumper, useless. I love mine, but again they do not add any visibility. ( or at least no noticeable difference) See pic below for an installed pic of the Shelby light/brake combo. Sorry bout all the dead bugs on the car.

Chris The Edelbrock intercooler is very wide and is behind the bumper on my car and it is within 1" of the back of the front bumper where the lights go. The pump for the intercooler is on the passenger side behind the bumper also behind the turn signal. There was no room for the lights.

Wnenn Ok, but the OP does not have a blower, and I did not realize you had an edelbrock blower. I should have rephrased my post, to read: All of the authorized blowers will work with the driving lights and the brake ducts except the KB.....with the KB you can only have one or the other.
