Heffernan Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 Has anyone mounted Hella 500 driving light behind the grill of a 08-09' before? I currently have 2 mounted on a Rally Innovations bar, however, I want to ditch the bar for a clearer look and while maintaining the lights. Ideally, something like this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewLegGT67 Posted March 7, 2014 Share Posted March 7, 2014 They actually work for the Forester but I'm not sure those size lights would work behind the Legacy grille. Maybe fog size lights. I'm probably the only person that has Wu-Tang Clan and Paul McCartney on their mp3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heffernan Posted March 7, 2014 Author Share Posted March 7, 2014 I have an 08 Outback, which I believe has a larger grill then the LGT, but I am ok with doing a little trimming to get them to fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewLegGT67 Posted March 7, 2014 Share Posted March 7, 2014 i support extra lughts So do I. i believe there are plenty of Legacys and Outbacks with this mod to use as a reference. GL. Can't wait to see results. I'm probably the only person that has Wu-Tang Clan and Paul McCartney on their mp3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JermTheElf Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 I just moved the Hellas closer together and drilled holes in the cross beam that the radiator top brackets mount to to hold the light brackets on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xVern Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 Bumping a 2 year old thread to see if anyone has done this with an 2008-2009. I've been thinking about it. Maybe some of the multicolor PIAA fogs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe some of the multicolor PIAA fogs? I ended up doing this but the grill for the 08-09 really diminishes the light output. I plan on to switch to a LED bar mounted in the opening behind the license plate to replace the Hellas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
