No Foglights
 
No foglights

Abbreviated installation instructions, courtesy of Nimisys:

1. Remove bumper:

a. Remove the under shield that attaches from the front of the bumper to the lower radiator support.

b. Undo and pull out the electrical connector in front of the driverside tire. This connector is the connector for all electrical items mounted on the bumper.

c. With the shield removed, remove the screws attaching the bumper to the inner wheel liner.

d. Remove the 6 press pins by the hood latch. Pull the sides of the bumper out from the car on both sides and then lift it off from the front of the car. It actually comes off pretty easily.

2. Remove the grill insert & block off (cover) plates

3. Slide in the fog lamps and bolt them in place.

4. Reinstall the grill and bumper on the car.

 

The clips you have to depress in order to remove that grill or block off plates while still on the car are just about impossible to reach. The problem lies in the lower grill running between the fog lights, it has to come off and it does not do so without a fight. This also makes it far easier to replace the driverside headlight bulbs.

This option assumes you have foglights & want to get rid of them, or need replacement info for the existing covers.
