Morimoto LED Fog Light Install Question

[OldBlue61]

I am FINALLY getting around to installing the Morimoto LED fog lights I bought during the last group buy. Been a lot of work on the new homestead! For those that have installed these - please tell me I don't have to remove the bumper. There looks to be some brackets for the bumper in the way. I was looking at the OEM lights, and I'm having a tough time figuring out the best/easiest way to do this. Did any one do an install w/ pics by any chance?

Don't have to remove the bumper. 10 bolts on each side hold the fog light housing in. Takes a little twisting and muscle but not a bad job.

Correct. only takes about 15 mins or so to take all the bolts out and twist the fog bracket out of place.

 

Friendly tip though, when reinstalling the brackets, make sure to hold up your bumper bar to keep the lines and gap straight. I just bolted mine back on and it was off, so I had to loosen all the bolts, push the bumper back up and hold it there and retighten everything.

Yeah, thanks guys. Not all that difficult now that I got in there and did it. Like it was mentioned, 10 or so bolts, and check the bumper alignment prior to tightening everything down. I also found it helpful to remove the two torx screws inside the fender liner to move it out of the way to give a bit more room to wiggle the bracket out of the way.

 

MAN, are these things an improvement over the stock fogs!
