Yikes! :o

Before you cut anything, did you disconnect the battery?

Double check your connections?

Sounds like either something blew - or there's a wrong/missed connection somewhere. :-?

^^Wow, cutting off the old and installing some aftermarket...I smell some custom mods in the works.^^

I surely hope you get this issue fix, post some pics when you do.

Invest in a volt meter, I've got several...trust me they're inexpensive and can save lots of time in troubleshooting issues such as this.

here are some pics of the finished product, this took me 2 weeks working on it a half and hour here and there after school, and by having the car takin away for a month i could leave it in pieces in the garage, but anyone could do this in a couple of hours on weekend, it took me awhile cause i was experimenting with it most of the time, just pm me if u have any questions on installing it or something. i hope u guys like it!

I'm sorry... did you say...

"...clicker in change box to turn the light ring on and off and to change the colors..."


:o


I guess "good job" on making some personal mods to the car... but the CHANGING COLORED RINGS in the bumper... I'm thinking CLOWN CAR coming down the road... no? :smilecolros:



Oh... I get it! You don't actually CYCLE the colors while your driving... just SET IT to match your preference... perhaps? :wink:

Did you really have to cut a hole there? That wouldnt be my first choice. Are those the fogs they sell on ebay? How much are they again? And lastly, what color schemes do you have?
