    Fitting foggies in there is pretty straightforward but would require a great deal of farting around making up mounting brackets.

    You would need to remove the bumper and use angle brackets mounted under the reinforcement bar, placing the lights so that they are equally mounted for distance from the car centreline, height and depth, then cut the holes into the clip-in inserts. Your mountings would need to provide adjustment so that the lights can be adjusted to centre them in the grille inserts. I had to do this when I replaced the Berlina lower grille with a Series 2 Calais one. The new grille didn't have any mounting points so I had to make them up as described above.

    Then you have the wiring to consider and the Exec won't have any pre-installed wiring, so you need to fit the whole circuit, switch, relay etc.

    Quite feasible, but a lot of work.
