Default Fog light ideas...help me out

hey guys i'm pretty new on this site and to the scion scene. i am a new scion xD owner as well. Like the millions on here, i have been searching and scouring the internet for some OEM fog lights for my car but to no avail.

I'm the kind of person that really wouldn't settle for aftermarket foglights on ebay. unless its OE/JDM replica's or something that looks close to it. basically i want things to be perfect enough.

With that being said...

I work at a toyota dealership and have been eyeballing the fog lights for all the car lineups and noticed they almost all have a similar Bezel shape.

So my idea is that i would purchase foglights to the one i find most similar to the xD bezel shape and size (i think 2012/2013 tacoma). Cut off, trim, and make it fit onto the fog light covers or bezels of the xD.

what you guys think?
which fog light should i pick out from the lineup?

Just eyeballing it it seems like it would fit..see if you could get ahold of one and go hold it next to or try to pop in if would vaguely fit id trim it up and go with it!

this isn't a bad start. there is another thread where someone with an rs1 had to do a custom set up because of the body kit on the front, just can't seem to find it at the moment
