I have a 2016 SLT and I have always wanted to install fog lights. I debated adding a factory kit but it was $$$$ plus I know a ton of people have issues with the codes being installed. So I added some flush mount LED lights to the fog light covers. Essentially what I did was cut out the plastic and then put the lights inside of covers. I was hoping the lights would sit further in but unfortunately due to a bracket I couldn't get it to sit flush but it actually doesn't look too bad. I am going to plastidip the front bumper this week I hope (fingers crossed on the weather) and that will make it look a lot better.

One picture is at night time with just fogs and the other with night time with fogs and headlights on. I really think I need to buy some LED headlights to match now... or blackout the headligths (hhhmmmmm).

Thank you. I like the look for sure. Just need the headlights to match or black them out not sure what I want to do.

Looks great, and I'm sure which ever way you go with the headlights, will be on point.

Looks good. And just for reference those are not the fog light covers. You would have needed a new bumper too to have factory fog lights(unless there is an oem add on kit that goes in the tow hook opening). So either way you saved yourself a lot of money and it looks more custom

OH that makes sense.... i thought at one point i saw a kit online somewhere that went in that location. but thanks. I mean the whole thing cost me like $30 verses probably like $200+ having to deal with the dealer
