Which caveman cut the hole for the rear fog light. God the lights about 45mm so I ordered a 52mm led rain light. But the bloody hole in the bumper is 60mm and looks like it was cut out with a piece of flint. Rant over.

The light was from demon tweeks off eBay but had to make the surround out of black Perspex as the light was 50mm and the hole was 60mm in the bumper so cut a piece at 60mm and one at 70mm glued them together then drilled out a 51mm hole sanded and polished job done.

Fitted this two years ago, the one I got filled the recess nicely ( 52mm O.D )
Although I am thinking of putting a red lens on it as a few Monaro owners think I knocked the original off and left it broke !
It was not manufactured in OZ or the USA so not sure if Pete GH wants to put one on his " Aussie Monster "

Well I was hoping it would have fitted straight out the box but seems someone cut a 60mm hole and siliconed the old one in.

No problem mate most rain lights are usually 52mm or I've found some at 90mm which are to big.

Ok Paul. I've had a look around & Demon Tweaks on ebay looks fav. I've looked at your pics & my set up in the bumper's the same. Would you cut me exactly the same size as you did for yours please.

I'll email you my address. How much do want to cover costs & post?
