Default Cleaning up your fogs DIY pics

So I decided to break in my new Wolfgang kit today. I figured I would try to do it on the fogs. After looking at them i realized that there was no way I could do it while they were on the car. So I took them off now keep in mind it takes two people to do this one to run the drill and the other to hold the fog light.

From where this pic was taken there are 3 plastic rivits I broke trying to change to fog bulb don't touch those they break easy. All you need to do unscrew the two screws in front and bend the plastic so you can access the fog light.

Here it is back on the car. Idk if everyone finds doing this worth the time but for us obsessive types any thing is worth doing to make your car look better.

Good job man

Also, that kit is available from autogeek.net directly and I believe they give a forum discount. I say this because if you go through amazon it is still coming from autogeek but without the forum discount
