I believe the bumper is different with the F-Sport model.. Might be an option from the dealership... I may be mistaken though..

US F-Sport does not have fog lights. Base, premium and luxury models do.

f-sport in u.s. doesn't have fogs. japanese f-sport does have fogs, so you can get 'em $$$$$. there's a thread in here on someone who did it (Joe Z?).

edit: see other posts have it covered.

Not to call positions, but I don't think you are the 2nd one. I think you more like around 4th or 5th. lol if you read both the thread I linked it would be a6s, Me, and mikec78. You might be the first in NC but not the US. Who knows there might be people who did it before us that is not in the CL Forum.

So how hard was it to install? I remember there was previous threads that there was no instructions on how to install. I would buy them if they had detailed instructions.

I bought the option 3 from Nigel's site. The fogs with the OEM stalk. I'm not comfortable doing that install myself, so I took it to an shop my buddy recommend me to go in my state. They knew exactly what they had to do even if it was the first one they did for my car. But they spent 5 hours on it, the hardest part they said was finding the pins for the fogs to connect into the stalk. And u also gotta b careful with taking the steering wheel off and putting it back on correctly. But $65 an hour, 250 bucks for labor. I also got an hid kit installed, bulbs r 8000k which isn't what I want, too blue. So Saturday I'm going to go to another shop where they have 6000k bulbs and switch them for me. But I'm liking it, I didn't want no custom switch. So I went with the stalk and I'm glad I did. I'll have pictures soon. But not the install tho, I wasn't able to stay for that. Had work.
