#98665, "Installing Front bumper cover, fender and a fog lights"




          

Should I use the mopar Silicon Rubber or Auto Glass Adhesive.

To install my bumper cover and right fender, Could I keep right splash shield on too

Its an easy task for a diy but wanted asked first.


Second question,

I have a set of OEM, blue fog light kit brand is PILOT.

Can I just hooked them to factory harness, use interior on/off switch.
Instead of using what came with the kit.

This too, is easy job for any DIY

you can tap into the wires from the origional lights, if there OEM then the current draw should be compatable with the stock wiring, otherwise you will need to run a new fuse and wires to the cabin.
if you have to do that, you might be able to salvage the stock switch but use your own wiring up to it

Thanks, that helps. This kit from Pilot came with a new fuse,switch and harness.
I don't like the style of the switch that came with the kit.

I'd perfer the the factory switch.

cheers

What would you need Mopar Silicon Rubber or Auto Glass Adhesive for?

Yes, you can still retain the splash shield with the new fenders and bumper.

I have a Haynes book it recommends using it. For better or rust pervention.
About the splash shield, I meant could I keep my splash shield on while removing the fender.
