Fog Light Bracket Repair

[M50_328is]

I'm sure at some point you have had a broken fog light bracket, it happens. This sucks because the light comes as a whole set, you can't buy the bracket alone, to my knowledge. Well here's how I fixed it w/ about $5 worth of parts. Here's what has happenned to me TWICE, broken "peg"

Then I replaced the broken pin w/ a 5/16" by 3/4" bolt by drillinmg a hole just big enuff for the bolt to thread into. Then I used a nut to hold it in place. I hit it with some glue to keep the nut from loosening.

Here's the fianl product

I know my car is dirty, but hopefully this helps someone save some $$$
