My ICEBOX installers forgot to plug in my fog lights

what do i do?? Can I plug them in myself w/o taking the bumper off?? I tried looking under the car, but it's so tightly enclosed, there is no place for me to put my hand up in there to plug them back in ..

Guess I'll have to take it back to Garage Kwai unless someone can gimme a quick fix for this...

<frustrated>

its really easy dood. Get under the car and you should see a bolt through the bumper, i cant remember what size it is, i wanna say 10mm.... but just unscrew that and the fog houses comes loose.. just pull toward you.

I suck at giving directions, but its a 10min or kess job. Really easy

THanks for the info .. i'll try it tomorow ..

icebox rocks .. when it's about 70 degrees or less, I REALLY feel the midrange power come in .. the headers rock too. The sad part is .. my fuel economy has gone to shit b/c of my new lead foot ... reminds me of the days when I first got the TL-S ..

I think i got 250 miles on my last tank .. pretty bad, huh?

So once I unscrew the bolt .. I pull the fog light out .. plug it in .. and then put it back and retighten the bolt right?

so who has the best deal on the IceBox these days? Is $250 + $20 for shipping it? That's the best I saw.

Are you organizing one soon? I want to run my car at the track .. do you run your Bimmer at the track, or is it too much of a showcar now (j/k) :P
