Those look like the ones Jason Rector put on his car. He's happy with them.

Those show to be 3 1/6 deep, they might hit your grill if you mount them in the stock location. You should measure before buying.

I think that measurement is full front to rear, which would appear about right if the full diameter is 5". The mounts appear to be more than half way aft which is good. I also got a PM with a pic of them installed on a roadster and with the hood open. They looked pretty good and no conflict with the hood opening. I'll give them a shot, they're on Amazon for about $4 more with free shipping and returns. I'll post them if I keep them while I wait for the elusive affordable Everwings to appear.
Thanks for checking the stats. Always good to have second set of eyes when I'm throwing lots of bits in the checkout cart. :)

They arrived yesterday. I don't think they look too bad and they fit ok. Maximum upward tilt is pretty much level. A little more reading the archives here on wiring them and I'm off to the store for a relay.
