Hi there has anyone bought the fog light kit, to fit the bumper lights? If so was it easy to fit, Im assuming the wiring is there and isnt going to be that hard. I have mentioned this before if anyone could give me a step by step would be much appreciated. Also got an LCR splitter to fit and new lower grill. Post pics when am done

Haven't done it myself but can't imagine it's that hard, getting the lights and grills in is easy- route wire up to the blukhead, through the grommet (right in the top corner) swap the light switches (easily accesed by pulling off the trim to get to the fuseboard) and voila *i think!*

RRP £120~

I think you get the grills standard grills (slatted type) with the kit, might want to think about FR fog grills if you're going that route
