Want to install fog lights in '10 base, any suggestions?

Post by SuperVibeMan »

Howdy.......looking to install fog lights in my 2010 Base model. As you know from the factory there are not cut-outs for lights. Maybe the exiting pieces can be removed, I'm not yet sure. Forgive my ignorance but do the solid pieces in my front facia remove easily for this to be done? I've not yet taken delivery of this Vibe I've just bought, but know I'd like fog lights and was looking for recommendations (brand and type of lights) for a clean and professional looking end result. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!

Best regards!

:D

Yes, they come out.... all the wiring is even there! All you need to do is buy the inserts, a fuse, and a relay. There's a tread here (somewhere) that details the install procedure.

Awesome...... when you mention "buy the inserts" is this something I need to get from GM? Or is it available aftermarket? Also any suggestions on what brand or style light to use?

Thanks for your input......I'm going to search for the link you speak of.....hopefully I can find.

Take care!
