Ultimate Freedom Fog Light Question

I have a 2002 Ultimate Freedom. It seems that the previous owners really buggered it up. I have the replacement headlights, but while underneath looking for the best way to change them, I saw the fog light bulbs hanging down by their wires. Looks like someone tried to put more powerful bulbs in them and melted them to the point they fell apart.

The lights are Hella, but finding them is more difficult than expected. I checked the Hella site and have narrowed down the potential matches.

for those who might have ideas, here are the numbers on the lights:
On front glass- 301-144 550
02B
20 TN 79 SAE F96

On the back of the bulb housing:136 993

They are 90mm across the back of the lens, and 80mm across the front. They fit into a Winnebago bracket.

Any ideas on where to go next will be appreciated. Here are some pictures of what I have to deal with.
Thanks in advance.

Seems I recall someone many years ago saying our fog lights were from a Ford Ranger ... I would call Lichtsinn Motors in Forest City and give them the s/n of my coach. They have never steered me wrong.

Good idea, I just ordered some other parts from them this week. They've been really good to work with.

I just bought one about a month ago on Ebay for my 04 Ultimate Freedom. Cost about $50.
The vendor was winnebagoparts.

My brackets don't look like yours however.

Found some replacements- they had the same numbers as on the old lens itself.

They are for a 99-00 Miata. The only difference is the location of the adjuster pivot. The replacements have it at the front of the lens while the originals had it behind.

Made an extension piece, cut the old adjusters off with the dremmel tool and just extended the adjuster. Works just fine, though the pivot point is right at the lip of the opening on the front. May just grind an opening in the edge of the lip. It really won't show.

The pictures show the difference and what I did to make them work. One is in, but the mount on the passenger side was loose. I've epoxied it in place and don't want to work on it until it sets and dries. Did install the driver's side, works well and should give me a little more light. I just like everything to be working as they should.

Thanks for advice, it helped me get on track and get this done.
