    Is this too difficult?

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Is the independent fog light mod a hard mod to accomplish? I'm not too savvy with DIY stuff but I am getting better as I do it. All the write-ups I've seen on AW seem a bit complicated, but might make more sense when I actually try it.

    I'm just curious if anyone has had a really hard time doing it, TIA

    link to said AW article? I'd look for it, but I fukin hate their forums.

    I can't imagine it's that hard, but I haven't looked at the wiring with that intent. Are you talking about the front fogs, or the rears?

    Isn't that a Mercedes thing anyways? (Chrysler Crossfires do it too)

    Aww whats wrong, too difficult for you to navigate? "resources" "tech articles" --> pretty straight forward!

    10th from the BOTTOM of the first category (roughly 30 down)

    To the OP: I've looked at it and put off doing it for the same reasons. Doesn't look too challenging, just time intensive.

    Worth it how? Not sure I understand why you'd want to be able to turn only fog lights on other than maybe to extend the life of your headlights...?

    Pretty easy, its just a pain to get the module out from where it is and put it back in.

    No, I just F-in hate that style forums. Audizine and others are easily navigated and simple. I use their forums in moderation, 99% of stuff I need to find I can find elsewhere.
