    Correct under bumper lights

    Does anyone know which is the correct Hella model for under the bumper on the 72-73 style S bumper with chin spoiler?

    Halogen Hella 118.

    Though the Hella 118s came in various configs (h1, h3, amber, clear fog, driving); my opinion is that they would have only been fog when the TTG optioned driving lights was also used.

    I've only seen this optioned/installed on a couple of RSes.

    Yes. Mounting brackets seem to be the rub!

    What happened to Eric's post showing the Lilac RS with the under bumper fogs and brackets?

    Those pics were open posted to the board years ago.
