If you use the same foglights as a sedan it will fit. It's basically a triangle, reuse the 3 factory mounting holes, and then a big hole along the edge for the PIAA/Hella light. All of the install pictures I've seen look different than mine, my hole is on the side edge and others look like they're on the bottom edge. They're also fairly thick, my lights don't shake all over the place even over gravel roads or potholes. I'll try to get a picture up on my yahoo site for you and if you need measurements I can get those for you sometime tomorrow.

Just uploaded some to my yahoo page, but they're not very big. If you want higher-res photos, send me your email address. Oh yeah, forgot to mention that the brackets are a giant 1/4" thick, pretty sure they're 6061 aluminum. The lights I had there were Hella 500s driving. Definately put some anti-seize on all of the bolts, I've had my lights on since last fall and all of the bolts came out with little effort.

Jorge,

They work GREAT on my 02 wagon with Hella 500 fogs.

The mounting bolt for the 500's is a little bigger than the hole on the KB's. A good drill and bit solved the problem.

I used the Hella relay and the factory fog light "on" signal to turn the relay on.

The 500's put out much better light, and the PIAA ion H3's have a amber tint that really cuts the fog.

I didn't have my T-square so all I was able to do was eyeball it with my tape measure. But the mounting holes aren't exactly square, anyways I sent you pictures of my bumper cover with the brackets on and off. Let me know if you want more pics, I still have it sort of disassembled.
