thanks for the offer man. i got the bumper off today with my buddy, but the HID power harness wasnt long enough and the fogs dont have enough watts to power up the ballasts on their own so i have to rig something up to work

I believe there is a write up but many ppl use different brands of hid. Some have mounted the hid behind the front bumper while others have taken the wheel wells off n mounted it as close as possible to the light
