    That post a few days ago about swedish customs gave me inspiration for the taillights i want to run. Does anyone have some and could measure the inner diameter of the round part of the bumper guard? It would be much appreciated!
    Thanks in advance

  4. The dimensions on the bumper guard holes -

    Bottom of hole measures about 3 1/2" in diameter. In that bottom there is an oval or double D shaped cutout that is 2 3/4" top to bottom and 2 3/8" side to side.

    Hard to explain - Need a pic?

    Georgia -
    Thanks for the dimensions!
    Thats the info i needed! If this works, id be cutting out the centers to make stop lights anyway. (Hope youre not a purest; i guess you wouldnt be on this board if you were.)
    Hamb comes through again!

  6. Glad to be of service! Do you need a good pair? Great pair? Fair pair? I've got a set I could let go but they are hardly any chrome left and what's not chrome is rust, but not rusted through. They could be salvaged.

  7. Forgot - Do you need the cross piece as well?
