Front fog light removal

[andyc]

Have tried a search on this first but nothing conclusive came up.
Could someone please tell me how to remove the nearside front fog light.

Yep removed both of mine for air flow, do you have an LCR ????

 

[Ruddmeister]

Sorry just checked your profile and you have an LC, LCR is simple, pull off grill, undo Hex bolts, pull out light, disconnect, job done.....not done an LC only LCR though

Yes, I tested two scenario's, stick with me, here's the science bit;-

I tried them Switched off
I tried them switched on

Decided I looked like a Chav with them on, so took them out.

i was actually looking for some genuine opinion regarding sourcing cold air, but never mind fella.

I said I was only playing!, common

Sorry, didn't understand your original question.

The answer I suppose is that I didn't try anything else on the intercoolers,no. I have been focusing on getting more air (preferably cold) in the airbox, which has involved a variety of ducting, airscoops, moving the battery and a combination of induction kits, airbox, performance panel filters etc. Will get someone to verify my findings with VAG COM on completion.

Just having a play really. Also seeing what sounds I get from the above too i.e, DV echo and induction roar.

With regard to the intercoolers again, I don;t know if what I have done has helped.....but it can't be worse unless I start getting stones in there....not happened in 6 months tho (plenty of flies sometimes ).
