4tehnguyen is right, u gotta remove the steering wheel, so unless u know how to do that, I wouldn't attempt dyi. It took them 3-4 hours to figure which pin to tab for the fogs. That was the hardest part. But they did an amazing job, mine works exactly like the video in joe z posted on the official JDM fog lights on US model f sport. I'll have picture of them on later tonight. I'm getting the 6000k bulbs switched right now.

If u want to go the stalk way, I'd get it professionally done. It's not an easy unplug and plug in type. U have to figure out which pin to tab into cuz its not prewired for our f sports. It takes an few hours. So yea, but I wanted the OEM look, so I didnt mind paying. Overall I spent 900-1000 on fogs lol. 500 for the package from Nigel, 325 for labor and parts, and 150 on the h11 hid kit for the fogs.

I c, I doubt I would b able to find out, the shop I went to is an hour away and plus I work 7 days an week, 12-13 hours, so no time to go over there. Plus I'd have to take apart the steering to c where they plugged in. I couldn't get pictures either cuz I dropped my car off and worked. I'd ask Nigel to ask tommy who did mikes car on this forum and c if he could tell u. Sorry man, wish I could help u.

Yea, the hardest part is prewiring them(wiring into the plug that plugs in the steering wheel to the stalk) it took them 2-3 hours to find it and have it function properly. One thing about us f sports having fogs is, even when u high beam, the fogs don't cut off lol. And it's wired to the ignition, so once cars on, they cut on if I have them on. Which I don't mind. But just saying maybe there r different ways to wiring them up. Just need sum1 here that's an tech and check that out for everyone. But yea, I love it, I would definitely suggest getting fogs for our f sports. I got my 6000k bulbs today, so I'll have sum pictures of them on and sum night pictures. So I'll update tonight with more pictures.
