Does the Piaa 1400 foglights fit our car?

i have some 1400's and it looks too big to fit in our car.. they wont fit in the shelving area (the place in the bumper). did anyone else install these on our car or have a solution for this problem? or do i have to get some other lights? thanks for any help!

I had to cut away a little section of the front bumper to get mine to fit.
I don't have the piaa's though.
The fog light covers the cut sections

mine were a little wider than the OEM cut out, so after i cut out the cut-outs i made two little cuts into the black area to give me a little more width..

you can notice it on the close ups.
But it is very unnoticable from any distance.

i took the front bumper cover off btw.. lots easier.

I'm DL'ing photos Now... slow server i will come back and post link.

I have 1400's and they fit on the front bumber in between the 2 ledges. It may take so cutting and moving to get them to fit but they look great..

they are fog lights you can make them fit if they are really what you want. just trim some plastic out of the way.

go for puttin the lights in the oem areas.. i did the same as 4jacks.. but my fogs dont stick out that far... if your lights wree centered mor towards the licence plate .. .. it looks weird.. ..(in my opinion). and who wants a freakin beam of white light in your rear view mirror.. and make sure you point those fogs down.. casue thats the firection fogs are supposed to be.. hehe
