The ones I am considering are from 1A-Auto. There are similar ones on Ebay, but looking at the reviews, people are having issues with the ones off Ebay of melting....

Sadly, on my Expy, the lights were not installed and I have the black blanks in place of those lights. I've heard that Ford uses the same wiring harness and the connections might be there in the event that I wish to install fog lights. I do, but would like confirmation that the wiring harnesses are really there before I start that project.

Sorry... that much I am not familiar with at all... I think there are topics on here somewhere in the "exterior" or even within the "1st Gen" that some have done an upgrade in adding... I also remember somewhere (and it might in the F150 parallel forum) this was done too. There is even stuff on Youtube that people have shown in a new install on their Expy's or F150's...
Mine situation is a direct swap OEM for new improved aftermarket.
If I can find the article and discussion on your scenario...I will link it you someway, somehow.

You're welcome. I guess it would depend on tire size how much room you have in there. But it wasn't bad at all for me. No rust issues or anything.But mine was a garage queen when I got it.

If I were keeping this bumper long term I'd go with these fog lights.
Not that much over oem replacement, and LED's.

Thank you for the info. The link indicates a variety of years for the expedition, but not 2000. What year Expedition did you put them on?

I did mine. I honestly didn't have any issues. Maybe 30 minutes total to do both sides. I did take it somewhere afterwards to have my headlights and fog lights adjusted properly. They only charged me $25. One tip I have is that you don't have to be under the truck really, I turned the wheels all the way to one side or the other and was able to do from there. You can kindof see at least one of them here.
And here you can see the headlights. I did these before the fog lamps. Together they make the truck look newer than it is.
Where did you purchase the headlights? They look really nice and a definite value added modification to the old ones. Mine are all fogged up and the passenger side one doesn't stay in the brackets any longer.

I used the Depo clear fogs on my 98. The swap couldn't have taken me more than an hour or so. It's even easier on the 99-02 style bumpers.
