    Figured I would post a few photos from my install 2018 Tundra with parking sensor holes to help those that may have ran into the same issue or to help others with future install.

    Upon swapping over the OEM foglight housing from the chrome bumper end cap to the color matched end caps I noticed the bezel housing had a lot of play and would probably cause the fog lights to bounce. So I came up with a remedy that should work nicely.

    Material used:
    -Window weld: re-enterable sticky putty. (Will not harden so can be removed later if needed and will not damage paint)
    -Ty-wrap

    Hope this helps a few.

    On one end of the bezel I applied a thick line of the putty rope.

    The rest of the way around the bezel I applied a thin line by stretching the rope out around the bezel. This will result in a water tight firm fitment inside the bumper endcap.

    Next after installing the fog light I used 2 tywraps to hold the foglight secure.

    Foglight bezel and housing is now firmly secured in the end cap resulting in no movement.
