Nico. Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 as i sure most people on here know, i trying fit up a set of DRL's into the grille, but today i got my first proper go at attempting it, but couldn't see any physical way i could get the cable from the lights up to the engine bay, the radiator section at the front seems totally sealed off... if anyone knows what i should do about it please let us know!!! i got the wiring down to a tee now just need get the things bleeding on!!!

Ben... Posted June 4, 2011 Share Posted June 4, 2011 Just drill a tiny hole enough to fit the wires through in the plastic casing. Just don't drill in to anything lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nico. Posted June 4, 2011 Author Share Posted June 4, 2011 sealed off is really the wrong word, more in accessible, but does seem a pain, will find a way though!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nico. Posted June 5, 2011 Author Share Posted June 5, 2011 what about fitting DRL into fog ligts? the type i got, and all the stuff its easier just to get into the fuse box like i trying... got out and looked, if i take the lighting units out it should be abit more accessible fingers crossed, all i need do is get the cable up into the engine bay!

Nico. Posted June 5, 2011 Author Share Posted June 5, 2011 where did i get them from? where i get almost my life from...

Nico. Posted June 6, 2011 Author Share Posted June 6, 2011 eerrmm yes and no, it took awhile to get my head about it so it works with the fusebox, but after asking alot on here and doing abit of looking up its pretty easy... if i manage to find away to get the cable up from the grille it wont take long so i'll picture it and wack up a mini guide :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
