Default Question about installing OEM style fog lights for 96 Accord

I recently bought a set of OEM-style Pilot Fog lights for my '96 Accord. My problem is that the OEM-style kit that I bought did not come with front brackets to mount my fog lights in. I have seen the instruction manual online on how to install the '96 OEM Fogs and it says the fog lights require a bracket plate to mount the actual fog lights into the pre-drilled holes. I was wondering if anyone here has purchased a set of these OEM style fog lights and whether or not they had to use front brackets to hold the fog lights in place and if you did have to use brackets where did you get them? Maybe i'm not reading the intructions properly but it sure as hell seems that I need these brackets. Because as it stands now the fog lights don't even come close to fitting the pre-drilled holes in my front bumper. Please note that the 94-95 accord mount style is different and does not need these front brackets. Thanks for any help!!

I also bought the oem style kit and it bolted right up to the lower grill in the bumper, harness took about 15 minutes to run and I was ready to go.

Like dantastic said, we need some pics

btw, where did you get the kit? Mine are about 5 years old and looking ratty, would like to replace.
