Put some aftermarket foglights on, and OEM front/rear mudflaps. Had the mudflaps for almost 2yrs...just never got around to installing them.

Foglights: Only need a 7mm and 10mm socket for the foglights. Super easy to install. Picked them up in November for $120 off a Vendor on eBay. They come with bulbs and a short pigtail. Nice product.

  6. Tie splash liner back out of the way
  7. 2C7FE3C4-1C2F-4CBF-B738-BE4D4911E4F8_zps9kgmtgvd.jpg

  10. 1 bolt is different of those 4. the inner most bolt is a shorter one that is used to anchor to plastic. the 3 remaining bolts are the same as those used to anchor the splash liner
  11. Here is a 1/2 way look. Reverse the process to install foglights. I will be doing the wiring later. Just wanted to get the hard part done. Took me about 1.5hrs all said

  13. Finished!

Mudflaps: Nice product. Fit the fenders nice, and extremely easy to install. Can be done with tire on, but I took advantage of the extra space.

Great write up!

How do the factory tow hooks attach? (Pics of those?).

Never mind. Google search found it (but forum search did not?).

Thanks for the nice writeup!

Still waiting on a thread where someone actually wires these fog lights up and makes them functional...

That's today's objective. Going to use a simple relay circuit for each one

Still haven't decided to use a 5 or 10 amp fuse though

10A for the lights = 120W

What size wire are you using?

I'm interested with how you wire it up as well. I thought about buying an aftermarket kit and just having them install directly to the battery but I'm open for other options. Looks good btw
