Nice! I have a set that I've been waiting for ages to put in. Is that a complete lower grille set or just the lights you got fitted?

^^^ They look sick!! Exactly what I want to do with my car!! The set I have looks exactly the same too!!

How did you install them? Get someone else to do it or?? I once went to autobarn and they said he needed to do a heap of work and remove a lot of plastic and I didn't want to do that. So if you did something else that works that would be awesome

The small grilles are easy to remove ,there is just one screw ,once removed its just a matter of pulling the grilles gently until they unclip. I wired mine into the headlight connection as there's a accessory wire there ,
Sent me a PM and i'll send you a picture of the wiring ,include your Email .

G'day mattchu,

You will need to remove lots of plastic from the back of the assemblies with a small saw to get them to fit, it's not hard to do just time consuming and the LEDs are secured using Silastic type of glue which is easily removed by a Stanley knife if required. Removal of the plastics bits does not compromise the structural integrity of the assemblies. I had the lights wired up by an auto electrician with their own fuse and relay and work whenever the ignition is turned on. They came up pretty good I reckon...

Ian, pm sent. Thanks

Ok, thanks Nedbone, where can I get this glue from?

[Nedbone]

I used Sikaflex - 227 which I bought from Bunnings, it does the trick, takes around 4-6 hours to cure and can then be painted if required.

It's not expensive and has many uses.

Ok thanks! When I get around to it I'm gonna give this a go.
