Anyone who has installed the forester fogs, what hardware did you use? Did it come with bolts or screws? If no what size do I need to get at the hardware store?

The long tabs are guides. Make sure those long tabs are in their respective holes, then just push the entire bezel in. All tabs will pop into place.

These bezels are a bitch to take off so make sure before pushing the entire bezel in, that the guide tabs are in.

here's a quick tip, for those of you that havent used the oem front license plate holder, it came with a set of 4 bolts and clips with nuts on it...you could probably use those as the screws to hold the fog light housing into place so you dont have to go get additional hardware

Does your fog lights have a gap between the bezel and housing?

Yea a slight gap. That's how it's supposed to be though. At least with this specific method of obtaining fog lights.
