Default 318ti base, now with factory fogs!

OK, today I installed factory fogs in my 318ti... I used factory lights, brackets and switch... All the wiring was aftermarket. They work pretty much as you would expect, except they do not turn off when you turn on the high beams. I'm going to be doing a how to in a few moments.
Here are some pics of the final product.

you need a drop, rims, and a front bumper delete. Other than that - clean car!

LOL thats true, just wanted to let those without fogs know it's possible with a little elbow grease to get them set up without much hullabaloo.

it is very doable...

For those that want to know. the standard ti light switch is almost the same as the fog light switch. I use a headlight switch on my car so that one pull is front fogs.. the second pull is front fogs and rear fog..

It did require me to use the headlight connector.. which I got from an online part out

Does look good though Al. Thanks for showing it

And for the comment about drop, clears, and bumper delete. Al is a stickler for originality.
