New fog lights installed on cobalt ls

Traded bumpers with a buddy a while back and today installed some fog lights i got at the junkyard ( with one insert for the bumper) for 40$ and then the other sides bumper insert for 23$ at the dealer (amazingly had one in stock!!!)
the bumper did not have the tabe to snap into though...and neither did the other two cobalts...which is odd....so we made do with epoxy
steve and i put it all together, ran it to a switch under the stearing wheel and powered by the parking lights (so i can choose when to turn them on and off but cant accidently leave them on..)
it all works GREAT and we tested a BUNCH of times lol
havent tested driving them (worried about the epoxy coming loose) cause the car isnt streetable yet (check my build thread lol)
anywho...to the pics!!!!!

damned bumpers are HUGE when off the car....and steve with a knife

outside grill instert in...no tabs on bumper=fail

Epoxy time!!!

this is what we used

make sure to wear gloves (this service anouncment brought to you by steves hand)

right side about to get applied

the ring that the light mounts to

car off, fog light installed

fogs and parking lights

fogs and all lights

Was it difficult wiring them up where your car didn't come with them stock?

eh, it took a lil while to get the wires into the cab, but all in all easy
we tapped into the pos for the running lights, grounded each individually, ran a wire across to the second after splitting for the first, and cut a hole for a switch. was a pretty basic lighting/car electronic install i would say
