Default Foglight installation

Ant,
I know that you may prefer to leave the installation to someone else but here is some food for thought. If you are looking to make an installation on the foglights without the lower trim it is actually a very easy Do It Yourself job. The lights come with a template that line up with pre-marked locations on the back of the front bumper. The front bumper shroud must be removed but this is covered by the instructions. The instructions are available for download (or if you can't find them I will e-mail them to you). The project does require a 40mm hole saw and a hacksaw blade, roto-zip, dremel, or other cutting instrument. The wiring DOES NOT require splicing because the lights plug into an existing plug on the vehicle.

If you cannot find a member to help you out, do it yourself. The fogs was one of the first accessories I installed myself and like most members, I did not have any prior experience. If you read the instructions, take your time, and follow the tips of members who have done the install already, you will have no problems.

Where is Chicago?

Don't know if I can do it for you, but might be able to stop by to help.

Also if you are going to do the tow kit, do the coolers at the same time.
