^you're in the right area!

the tail lights are a direct swap.
you'll have to disconnect the bumper a little to gain access to the tail lights.
remove old tail lights, swapping over the LED board to the NEW tail lights.
then install.

the fog lights are a little bit tricky.
you or some one else will have to cut the lower grills, and then modifying the grills in order for the foglights to fit.

^correct, but you don't have to disconnect the bumper at all, well I didn't. There is a DIY somewhere.

You cannot get to the 2 bolts under the tail lights unless you drop down one side of the bumper to access it. There is no way to get to them. Justin is right.


And welcome!
