Re: foglight removal

["John Hopkins" <vergeo@email.msn.com>]

To remove the factory fogs you have to remove the dummy light reflectors
first.  Then you have to use a small wrench and hold the locking nut in the
back of the screw to take them out.  By the way I opted not to remove my
factory fogs I just cut the Kamei air intakes so that the hole was large
enough to fit around my fogs and the rest of the cover is body color.  P.S I
will try to upload a pic to my web page soon.
