i recently bought a set of fog lights off ebay and i was wondering if anyone had any clue how to install them. most importantly, does the bumper have to come off? i hope not but if i have to i will. thanks.

here are the fogs in all their ebay glory.

I think that there might be an article in the tech section that explains it. hope this helps.

 

You definately have to remove the bumper,once you have,they should mount right on to the factory mounts(according to the listing specs).

 

i couldn't find anything in tech, but maybe i just don't have the fu. here you are, just to get you started:

good luck & please let us now how you get on!

 

You def need to remove the front bumper. Not as difficult as it might seem. Be very careful when you have it off so as not to scratch or gouge the paint. Lay the bumper on some bath towels or and old blanket.

i bought my set via a local Walmart. had mine installed in about 1 hr.

 

I never removed the bumper. You can access the area from inside the wheel well. Take off a couple of the screws holding the plastic inside the well. You can take off the tire or just turn it out of the way.

 

I have a post in this thread that tells the gist of the OEM install...

The ebay fog lights might have a different wiring setup. Good luck!

 

I have the PDF of the intsall (factory) You do not have to remove the bumper. Email me if interested

 

thanks for the replies. i was planning to give it a shot today but rain is owning me so i'll have to put it off.

 

I would think thay you would just have to take out the inner fender panels. But I honestly don't know.
