I heard back... They can't make any promises, but said they definitely should be in sooner than mid-April.

Good question about the wiring... I was wondering that too. I have not looked yet, but I'm assuming there is enough slack to reach.

The fogs are not moving that far so one would think there is enough slack.

sooner the better for me!

BTW John- Isn't Canadian "Warm Weather" defined as the 1 week in July of bad sledding?
haha Mr. Funnyman. Normally it is after May 24th weekend but that is only because we are still warm from all of the drinking we did on the weekend.

Hmm you know...I didnt even ask. I hope it has it if it needs it!
Due to the position of the bulbs in the foglights and where the harnesses are located I don't think an extension is required. However, if I find it is a close call I'll just splice in some longer wires.

These lights look just as far apart as the ones in the SSE center-fog grille. I really think it may need extensions. I'm sure though if it does, that wouldn't be included in the $150.

Since you have the SS grille, how big is the gap between the lights? I thought it was only about an inch. These look to be about 3" apart.

I didnt need an extension when I put it on my car. You will have to un-fasten the factory harnesses from the around the front core support area. Just pop the little retainers out that hold the wires in one place. That should give you enough slack. I will probably write up some installation instructions to be included with all the kits to help minimize the confusion though.

Its actually about 3 5/8 inches of space between the fog lights on this grille. Thanks!

I just measured the SSE grille and it is 2-5/8" between the very inside edge of the light bezels... 10" exactly from center to center. So, it looks like this grille has them about an inch further apart. I guess that's enough for the stock wires to work.

It should work since these are farther apart and closer to the orginial fogs are.

On a side note. I just ordered the grille (WOW $24.95 shipping) and I used my ATM card for payment. It has been charged already soooo if this grille doesn't ship in acouple of days I'm not going to be a happy camper that I have already paid for it.

Yea thats right. The charge should drop off and it should be just for verification. If it doesnt, give them a call back.

Thanks

Well I have been working in Photoshop tonight and tried to come up with what I think my final front end is going to look like....Mind you, I dont have a roush so the "roush" lettering will not be on the windshield, but i do plan on getting the facia.

Its my first photoshop attempt, not great but heck it gives me an idea of what to expect.
