Anyone make a bracket for mounting aftermarket fog lights?

I can't express my contempt strongly enough for the OEM fog lights, even after I upgraded to a yellow LED from Xenon Depot. Baja Designs makes a nice mounting kit for the Squadron series for the 5th gen 4Runner. No one makes anything for the 4th gen that I can find. Ideally, I'd like to mount a pair of the round, amber Squadron Sports but I want it to look close to OEM. I at least want it to look like It's supposed to be there. I've seen the Diode Dynamics Stage Series thread posted by Drift Monkey, but those look a bit janky to me. Functional, for sure, but not the fit I'm looking for.

Absent identifying a mounting bracket currently available that replaces the OEM fog light pod, what would be the interest level if someone made one and brought it to market? I know the 4th gen crowd is smaller than the 5th gen, but we're also a group that's very likely to invest in aftermarket improvements.

A member on here 3D prints and sells them for early 4ths. Not sure if he ever made a pair for the 06-09s. Products – Solidshift Concepts

To be fair, the search feature is a bag of dicks. I get about the same results searching for "fog lights" as I do "light bar" or "butt plugs." Always churns out results that are irrelevant and worthless.

Found it. Here's the link for reference:

YETIX Build and Adventure Thread aka Travels with Savanna

That looks better, but still not what I have in mind. I'm talking about either fabricating a bracket that would allow the OEM fog pod to be used to mount a BD Squadron series light, OR fabricating a new pod that would easily accommodate the BD Squadron series or similar. It doesn't look like anyone makes one.

You use Baja Designs bracket and literally just drill a new hole an inch back. Utilizing oem fog light holes. Other than that, custom fabrication for little things like that.
