I actually am trying to figure out how to install the HID fog lights in my '00 at the moment, i have the angel eyes and hid 2k2 headlights with the frosted lens to work on next but there is seriously NO directions out there on how to do it (the fog lights, i have the directions but theres no pics or helpful pointers, half of it makes no sense), (i dont have directions for how to install 2k2 headlights in the '00 model either, only on how to install angel eyes and the cleared blinker)..

almost 75% of those how to installation directions are websites that are no longer in existence.. anyones help would be appreciated as i cant post new threads myself yet.

I have mine in one headlight (broke one of the rings waiting for the replacement) there is a slot that the wires go through you'll see it when you take apart the headlight. When your gluing try not to bend the rings to much, they will break very easily (trust me) install is easy they just break really easily.

Its a true story I was there. During the install of my DDEs I broke two rings, I can not emphasize how much you must not twist bend or look at the ring the wrong way so that it doesnt break. If you go to www.innerbean.com/housecor there are plenty of directions on how to install many things for the 5.5 gen max
