Clear Corner Lights Install
 
Here's a step by step to install your corner lights install. I have a ROUSH front end so there maybe a few variations. The left side took me about 30 mins because I was taking pictures. The right side done in 12 minutes. So easy a cave man can do it! :rofl2:

You rock, man. Great pictures and write up.

Already have the supplies, gotta finish the audio and interior first, then it's this.

Anyway could you tell me what the bulb type in the Roush fog light is? Searched all over looking for it, but it's not even in the Roush install manual; plan on doing the Saleen Heritage grill in a while and putting those in, but want to do HID if it's possible.

Thanks.

Here you go:

H10

I actually replaced mine with lights with a
yellow tint.

Perfect! I was hoping it was the H10s, that's what's in the normal grille fogs, too, so already have the HID setup, but maybe I'll do another set at some point whenever I get the new bumper!

Thanks!

Those look great and are now on my "must do" list!!

do these clear lens assemblies come with the amber bulbs or were those purchased seperately?

300GT 12/26/08 02:16 PM

nice write-up. Thats exactly how I did mine. I know guys say you can do this install with the wheels on, but unless you are extremely flexible the wheels off method is much, much easier.

travelers 12/26/08 02:28 PM

I've got the smoked ones and easy to do.

I bought the XENON aka stealth bulbs at StangMods.com. The don't come with lights. You can't use your stock bulbs on the clear lens because they burn "white" You could use amber colored bulb but some say it looks like an egg yolk. :grin:

Ya why stress it when all you have to do is pop off the wheel. Plus with the wheel off you can detail the well and clean the brake assembly. :nice:

Great write up Jed :nice:


Car looks great with the new mod.

CO_VaporGT_09 12/28/08 07:00 PM

Just put in my right side lens -- had to remove the wheel and inner well liners to snake some power cable to the battery for my audio install, so thought I'd get it done now.

Bought my bulbs through StangMods like Jed, but got the lens much cheaper than any of the traditional online stores, off Ebay, $35 w/ free shipping from seller zizalighting, have both clear and smoked:

Some others have stated the various other replacement lenses fit a bit loose. The ones I got are actually a tighter fit than the OEM. Fit perfect and look great.

Haven't powered them up yet (battery still disconnected for the audio install) but should work the same way as they're the same StangMods bulbs (which are also available on Ebay for less, by the way, but I did StangMods cause of their lifetime warranty).

So feel free to get the cheaper Ebay lenses, all together about $70 for the full lighting upgrade!

This was one of the first mods I did. I think it makes a tremendous improvement in the looks not having those yellow things. It looks consistent with the headlights. :D Although most people don't notice as they are so used to the yellow ones.
