Fat Del Posted May 17, 2008 Share Posted May 17, 2008 Ok so it's FITP tomorrow and I wanted to have my foglights fitted in the bumper but I won't have time to do it all properly so I think i'll just put them on, without doing all the wiring etc because it's pissing down with rain Anyone know how to do it? I don't want to go out there not knowing what to do beforehand because i'll get soaked if I don't do it fairly effieciently. What tools do I need? How can I do it etc?

marshy Posted May 17, 2008 Share Posted May 17, 2008 (edited) is the bumper on the car already?? if so 8 screws...2 on either side of bumper in wheel arch, 4 nuts..iirc about 8-13mm,on inside of bumper on either side of grille..4 screws for fogs 2 either side of lights... simple enough really...easier if you get under car or have car jacked up..1 posse screwdriver done in about 15 - 20 mins if that Edited May 17, 2008 by marshy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1pukkadeal Posted May 17, 2008 Share Posted May 17, 2008 marshy is right but it should not take that long ,takes 15 seconds a side with bumper off and if you aint got your lower grill yet I would wait and do the lot together Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fat Del Posted May 17, 2008 Author Share Posted May 17, 2008 Gah... That's a point about the lower grille though I'll see if the rain stops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
