The '00-01 mount completely different than the '02-03 which use two 10mm nuts to hold them to the bumper.

Is there any way to modify them to fit, how different are the mounting points for the 00 vs the 02?

Honestly I don't know about the 2001 fogs. Per the FSM it says to remove "the bolt" and pull it forward. The 2002 has two 10mm nuts.

Hummm, I wonder if that one bold is in the same posision as one of the 2k2 bolts if so will one bolt be sufficent enough to hold the light in place? If anyone can compare the fog assembly and let me know if will work I would appreciate it. Thanks
