    Might be a stupid question about fogs...

    I want to throw in hids in the fogs too since it looks kinda out of place and curious if the bumper needs to be removed. Looked a little and doesn't really look like it. Thoughts?

    I was able to sneak mine in without removing the bumper. Just raise the front end, and remove the skid plate, and you can reach right up there. However I am a small guy with small hands, haha.

    Very easy, get some slim ballasts to make life easy. also Phillips 35W 5000K are great for an OEM HID headlight color and brightness match.

    No such thing as stupid questions only stupid answers....in order to get the HID's in you have to take the spark plug out of the rear differential, and put some silly putty on it and thr fogs should be good to go in...tee hee!!

    No, it depends how you wanna do it...i had to get in there on my s line grilled a few weeks and and its tight but it was fine...it may be easier to just remove the bumper real quick

    Sline - it's possible, you just need small hands

    Non Sline - You're taking off the bumper; no other options.

    You have to take the bumper off to do pretty much everything on our cars, so you might as well get good at it.

    As a non-sline owner, I have to say taking off the bumper all the time is the one thing i really dislike about my car. Other than that

    But yea take your bumper off if your nonsline too. good luck!

    to be honest it is way easier to just remove the bumper. I cut my hands to shreds putting in Hoen's, but did it without removing the bumper - never again!
