Need to know 98-99 2.5RS fog light size

Hey all, I recently purchased a light front damage OBS and have ordered the 98-99 2.5 RS bumper cover. I'm having some trouble locating the fogs. After inspecting an 02 WRX, I have a sneaky suspicion that the early RS fogs are the same size as the 02s. The 02s are 7" in diameter.

Anyone here care to post the diameter - edge to edge- of their 98-99 2.5RS fogs.

Or

If you'd like to sell yours, let me know

I'll also be needing the switch inside. Any help with this mod would ne greatly appreciated.

the 98 and 99 fogs are completely different. the 98's have different bumper covers with little fogs. the 99-01 have the larger (WRX looking fogs). but i believe they would be the same but i'm not sure. hope you get the newer one. it's cooler than my 98 bumper

I think the '99-'01 RS front bumper requires a different inner bumper beam than is on the Impreza L, '98 RS and OBS. And I think almost any 7" round lamp will fit in the bumper openings, Hella, PIAA, Catz, Cibie, etc.

I looked up some 98 RS pics and they look like sevens to me too, my bc comes in today, so I'll measure the opening.

I may have to go the aftermarket route, but what about the interior switch? Will the Subaru interior switch work with afermarket lights?

Thanks for the reply
