Here's a 914 fog light install with the backdated bumpers so of course I needed the fogs!
I got the housings from Bruce Stone, and they just needed some good cleaning, resto, and wiring to connect it to the existing parts on the harness! I used 914Rubber’s lens seals and clips, and they also have glass replacements for the lenses! This project definitely had its little knots, just like the one Russ had to untangle. Name that spoof! All fun and games aside, part of why I’m doing this channel is to show kids, teenagers, my friends, that we can take on our own challenges. This channel works because of the people watching it. To keep pushing this forward, especially with EV components, I’m looking for partners who want to support that mission. If you know someone, or you are someone, feel free to reach out. This is how cool things happen. Just Tinkergineer It - Frances https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mf9CRoClG-s |

Nice video and well done on the install.
I have a set of allegedly yellow LED fogs that look a bit too much like amber and I haven't sold them. You can have them for no charge if you make a video of the install. The LEDs are in a rectangular 2x4 pattern. Attached image(s)

Jerry (Spoke) helped me fix the fog light/ led headlight issue. Are you running LED headlights? If so there is a simple mod you need to do. Happy new year and nice video. Call me and I will explain the needed mod. Congrats to you and Daniel on another great video. I look at do many Utube how to videos and drop watching after seconds of them as they are so poorly done. |
