[W126 Coupe] bumper / fog light brackets

[Axel Wulff]

Lou,

The fog lights are not supposed to be bolted to the bumper.

The brakets carrying the bumpers on the SEC have mounting plates for the fog 
lights. The bumper brakets for the SE/L do not.

Is your car a gray market import? If so, when the importer did the 
federalization they probably got the bumper brackets for an SE/L and just 
bolted the fog lights to whatever.

You can get a set of SEC bumper brakets at a junk yard, or on ebay.
