JP Custom's fog light kit

[2000 GMC]

My Sierra doesn't have the openings on the air dam needed to install fog lights.  Has anyone installed the kit offered by JP Customs.  Is it easy to install and wire up?

Also the page states that you need to take the vehicle to the dealer to complete the installation, what exactly does the dealer do and will they give you any hassel over it?

 

Thanks

The dealer has to "flash" the computer so it knows they are there.  Some dealers will charge like 20 bucks for it and some will do it for free.

 

They should be rather simple to hook up, the only difficult part is taking off the air dam, which isn't all that difficult in itself.

 

You shouldn't have any problems.

Or some dealers are A$$' and charge $70.  O'reilly - Tucson.

The JP kit is the GM kit.  Real simple.  The hardest part is probably hooking in the wire on in the UEC underhood electrical center.  Although for me, the ground strap was not in the center of the bumper on the harness, so I had to hook it to the right side horn ground.

 

Of all of it actually, the hard part is paying to have BCM programmed to turn them on when it's just using a TECH2 and scrolling through a couple of menu's and changing a value to enable.

 

My truck didn't have the tow hooks nor the lamps.  I didn't cut out the back for the tow hooks when I installed them.  Still plenty of room to use them.  You'll have to cut out the opening for the fog lamps.  You can use a trimmer's knife.  Just take your time.  It can be done on the truck, but it looks like a toss up in labor to unbolt it and do the cut out on a bench.
