To begin, make sure the vehicle is in park, on level ground and the parking brake is engaged.
1. With a 10mm socket, remove the bolts securing the felt under panel to the front clip. Remove the bolts that hold the front clip to the lower supports and front fender flairs.
2. Disconnect the 3 electrical connectors on the passenger side of the front clip above the shutter system.
3. Gently pull the sides of the front clip out and forward to disconnect them from the vehicle. The furthest in clip will be behind the grill vent trim pieces. Repeat on the opposite side of the vehicle.
4. Remove the four push rivets securing the air box inlet to the vehicle and remove the inlet. With a 10mm socket, remove the 3 bolts holding the top of the grill to the core support (circled). Gently lift up and out on the front clip to remove it from the vehicle and place it face down on a soft work surface.
5. Remove the 6 bolts holding the shutter system in using a 10mm socket (circled). Use a Phillips head screwdriver to remove the small screws securing the front fog light cover. Stand the front clip up and remove the fog light cover starting at one end and disengaging the clips moving across.
6. Uninstall the factory fog light by removing the 2 Phillips head screws on either side and disconnecting the electrical connectors on the back.
7. Add the 3/8” bolt and washer into the bracket and secure hand tight with a nut then using a 4mm Allen wrench, install the S2s into the standard light bracket. Repeat for the second light and once assembled, use a 9/16” wrench and socket to mount the two lights onto the driver side vehicle specific mount bracket.
8. Plug in the wire harness adapters to the OEM fog light harnesses and the S2s. Carefully tuck the wires behind the light. Mount the new fog light assemblies into the truck using a Phillips head screwdriver and the OEM fog light screws. Make sure the lights are level and align with fog light opening.
9. Reinstall the front clip by following steps 1-5 in reverse.
