I have the oem retracting foglight mounting kit at home. From recollection there is a flat plate which mounts to the metal strip underneath the bumper, and then there is a 90 degree bracket which attaches the foglights to that plate. As for where they line up in relation to the indicators, I have no idea as I have not yet fitted mine.

 

Have you got some pictures to post up of your fogs?




You mean these L-shape brackets? But there is no where to mount them and wouldn't using those make the arms point forward rather than down?

(Ps: Hope you don't mind me borrowing your pic RdS)

Those are not the oem brackets, which might be part of your problem :) As I was attempting to explain (poorly), there are some flat brackets which first attach to the bracket underneath the bumper skin. There is then an L-shaped bracket between that and the foglight. I've dug out a picture which should be similar, if not the real McCoy.

Ah ha! So it's those brackets that are centering the fog lights, mystery solved.
Thanks spike10000, it's probably near impossible to find actual OEM brackets so will most likely need to make some custom ones.

Ok, so for those who are interested I ended up making some custom brackets.
They seem to make the lights sit a little lower then they should but that might have more to do with the thickness of the metal i used.
Overall very happy with the look, just waiting for the fog light button from the UK before I start wiring it all up.
These lights are so out of place and look so much like an after thought by Toyota, but they have really grown on me lol.

Looks sharp mate!
 
Keenly interested in how you mire them up, particularly since these ones are two mode beam, so a writeup on that would be great  I'll be doing mine very soon too, just been busy!
