After a year of having a v6 bumper..

http://instagram.com/p/NusajsPNGl/


So if any of you remember back last year, I was backed up into and had my front end replaced with a V6 bumper...and finally, a year later. i hooked up my fog lights, i should have done it back then but i was waayyyy lazy and never bothered. but today. TODAY IS A GREAT DAY. enjoy my friends, and credits to one of my best friends (steven pham) and my cousin LK-PHOTO on helping with the hook up

Good stuff. My hid fogs just arrived yesterday so I'll be doing this soon. How long did it take? What wire did you tap?

You should use the low beam tap to prevent them from turning on and off with the parking light.

I went to install my fogs and they are not even close to fitting! The fogs are circular and the bumper's holes are ovular. The mounting holes don't line up. It's all WRONG! I couldn't take pics but I will tomorrow. I'm so frustrated right now.

You have regular halogen lighting not HID correct? If so then it should be fine. I hope that you are using a relay to power the fog light though.

I'm not exactly sure but it would be wise to pull the low beam harness out and test it with a multi-meter.
