Right. I have fitted these today.. It took quite a while as i had heard about the heat issue with the resistors so i wanted to mount them away from anything that can cause issues.
Unfortunately i didnt really get many photos (mainly as i kept forgetting!)
I removed the front bumper which gave me access to everything nice and easily and decided to mount the resistors on the brackets that come from the main chassis leg and join on to the wing.
(You can see the bracket i mean just under the horizontal wiring loom)
That way they are not going to cause any issues, Also i soldered long wires to the resistors and taped them to the fog light wiring that runs down from there anyway so nice and tidy.
To connect the wires to the fog light cabling i just used the supplied connectors as i was getting short of light and wanted to reassemble the car, but i intend to properly solder the wires on to give a better finish soon.
So basically i just used the bulbs
H11 CREE Q5 12V/24V LED FOG LIGHT BULBS UK PAIR | eBay as i know the guy who sells them.. and a pair of 50w 3ohm resistors which he also supplies.
Here is the finished result..
im very pleased as i also managed to work out how to use VCDS and code the cornering lights which use the fogs so now they match im much happier.
The job is probably fairly easy to do without removing the bumper but i had a couple of bits to do anyway so i found it easier to remove it. So if nothing else i hope it gives a rough idea how it can be done.
