Driving light mounting
I often see photos of Proteges and Astinas [BJ series] with driving/fog/spots mounted in the holes in the front-dam. Are they mounted using the threaded bolt into the dam? Or is there a special mounting kit?
Tks for any answers,..Jason |

they have their own mounting brackets. sp20 is different to stock 1.8.
my thread shows sp20 from inside the bar.

The lights just mount to the bumper - they have built-in brackets

Thanx for that,...I guess a proper mount is better than expecting a single bolt mounted in plastic to do the job :-)

Thanx for that info :-)
I note that the driving lights come specifically designed for the Mazda shaped hole [mine's a 1.8] The previous owner has inserted X shaped stamped aluminium mesh in the 2 holes and the radiator/condensor intake. In the eye of the beholder I guess. I'd prefer some spots in there myself. CA |
