Looks awesome!!

When you get a chance to talk to your installer, can you find out some specific?

1) Light stalk - when he replaced the stalk,
a) was it a direct swap using the existing connector, or
b) he had to splice in a turn-on wire and ran it back inside the engine bay to control the fogs.

2) Wiring up the fogs - I understand that there is no wiring harness for the fogs in F-Sport, so I assumed he put one together. Can he share what he did to wire them up? Did he wire it into the missing fog relay in the relay bank and added a relay?

Thanks in advance!

Ok so he told me today that he has 150 Pictures so most likely he's going to put it on a CD for me, so Thursday I will have the cd and most likely load it up that day.

That would be great. I currently have the foglight switch in my coin pocket but if the pics make sense and easy enough to do I will swap for the OEM stalk.

Looking forward to the pics!

Can you comment on how the fog light switch works? does it turn on/off the fogs independently of the main headlight or the two are in sync when you have the fogs on or fogs turns off when you have your high beams on eg. like a GS with factory fogs.

Thanks!

Yes the switch works perfectly and I asked him if he could make it independent, so I can turn it on without the low beams being on.
Here are the pics I had to make another thread!

Yeah...saw your other thread. Thanks for pics!

Do you mind if I ask how much they charged you for the install?
