Are you serious? Don't you think that could be a little risky exposing the filter to the elements?

If you don't want to keep the fog lights my best suggestion is to put the covers back on

awwwm, thx buddy...that's the best comment i've ever gotten....ever!

I sure did learn a lot doing this...good and bad ^_^

u guys r like the only reason why I keep doing this.

This dude at the store tells me i'll blind people with my HID projectors...wtf!?
the whole purpose of a projector is not to blind and two is well its brighter.
wat a nub...gosh i hate peeps that think i dunno wat im doing..making themselves sound like 'been there, done that'.

anyway hey i really appreciate it!
if I see an interesting idea on this site..I'll give it a go...if its cheap ;)

I have had my grille out for some time now with no ill effects

Yeah, the filter is exposed to the elements regardless... But if you want a set of plugs for the fog holes, you can have mine for shipping costs.

you gotta take some step by step pix so we can see what you are doing Blen... all we are seeing is the end result, not the process... if we saw the process we might be able to help

That's one small step for Blen,
One giant leap for bright lights!

The cutoff on the good one looks great.

Did you put new holes in your bumper for them?

Blenjar

Nope. I used my normal fog light....cut them..in half and JB welb it directly to the projector.

When I take out my driver side fogs, I'll video tape it.
and explain how I did everything.

Work has been a pain lately + retrofit pain + $$ pain = frustrating week..hahaha..fogs made my week a bit better tho.

I don't get why you need to cover the fog light hole if you have them mounted in the factory position.

Is the back of the projector open to the elements? That won't last long. They are meant to be in a sealed housing. PVC pipe with rubber end caps or something else might work.

Also the ballasts have to be kept high and dry.
