New Foglights for the Durango - Oem Jeep SRT Led Fogs!!

The new lights were delivered yesterday. They appear to be good quality. Looks like the optics and reflectors were designed to support the LED, so output should be pretty respectable. The front glass is clear not frosted like the factory lamp fog and head light housing, so hoping they don't look too out of place once installed.
I am feeling a bit frustrated however....tried to get under the truck, and managed to get my fat head under, but unless I develop another wrist between my elbow and my wrist, not going to be able to install them, just not enough room for me to get in there to work without lifting the front a few more inches.
I don't have access to a way to lift the front up a bit right now, so I'm asking around to see if any friends or coworkers have a set of ramps to loan. Failing that, I'll buy a set or build some from some 2x12 boards.
Will also need to find a star driver of the correct size for the adjustment screw. Not sure why they used a star head screw instead of something more standard like a Phillips head.

I feel like there are four bolts that hold the housing for the fog light. Maybe you could reach under, undo those bolts and then do the swap on the workbench?

There's the problem...not enough room for me to work my arm around. I'll find/build some ramps or see if a local garage will let me use their lift.
Had the same problem with my Ram when I was trying to mount the brush bar; too much me and not enough clearance. :)
That and I'm not nearly as flexible as I was when I was younger.....

Appreciate the tip on the bolts....may have to go that route when I can get under it.

There are clips that are part of the bumper cover that plug into it. Should not be any bolts. But don’t mess up the clips since they are one with the bumper

Not on the east coast, in TN, but when the weather is decent, I'm at work. Was 81* one day last week, stuck at work, then turned cold and rained. Had snow yesterday, just never know here what the weather will be.
I did get a set of ramps borrowed from a coworker, so fingers crossed maybe this weekend they will get installed.

Ever get them installed?

Sorry, have not.
The borrowed ramps never materialized, and between a very nasty cold with a ton of congestion, work, and weather I have not had a chance to revisit getting them installed.
I'm due for a rotate and balance, may just see if the tire shop can do it while it's on the lift.
