Well, getting the front bumper off was a little difficult, esp when I broke a couple clips, but overall the install went well. Ill try to get some pics up after I wash my car tomorrow.

How is the fit and finish on these units? I usually stay away from aftermarket parts because of fitment issues on my past experiences. Thanks.
 
Yeah the front bumper doesn't HAVE to come off, but there is one screw that is very difficult to get to if you don't remove the whole thing.

The fitment is great... no problems whatsoever.

Pictures will be coming soon... Im going to wash my car right now.
 
I just got the ones I order from Burtman yesterday. Took me a while to install them tonite, but got it done.
I'll upload some pics when I get a chance tomorrow.
 
"broke a few clips"?
What would you do differently so that you don't break them if you were going to do it all over again?

I want to install my new pair ASAP, but it's been so cold outside.

Looks good on white..... now if they only had black aftermarket fog/drl housings!!!!
 
I couldn't wait for an answer to my previous question, so I just went ahead and installed my new pair this weekend.....and broke a clip on that center trim piece. I think the cause was 35 degree weather - the plastic didn't bend as much as I would have liked it to (duh?!).

Result:
They look great on Titanium with the Canuk bug deflector. I'll post pics later on. Perfect fit, took 62 minutes to install, without removing the bumper - thanks to the previous thread that details the install. I did notice, however, that the housings do need to be aimed correctly. The beam spread is HORRIBLY wrong and I'll have some tweaking to do later on.

Oh, and I also did see that there is some dust buildup on the inside reflective surface of one of the housings - and I don't have compressed air to blow it out. I notice it only when the lights are on and I'm standing within 10 feet of the lights. No big deal, but just figured I'd comment on it, since it is noticable.
