You will need a wire extractor or awl to push the pin in to extract the wire.

I did a simaler cut on that foglight hole just to allow more airflow for my CAI..

Can someone tell me the purpose of drilling the holes from the template? I dont see what they are used for.

vtmn215 · 04-13-2007, 08:03 PM

in the instructions, the template for the hole needs to be drilled so you can access the fog light adjusting screw.

***ImTheVoiceOfGod*** · 04-13-2007, 08:05 PM

Ahhhhh, thanks

vtmn215 · 04-13-2007, 08:43 PM

Hooo Ya! :) I didn't know why we needed to drill those holes till I saw the foglight mounting bracket.

***ImTheVoiceOfGod*** · 04-14-2007, 09:01 PM

Ok,I was installing aftermarket fogs. I finished the install last night, everything works.... but I have a blue connecter left..... Where the **** does this go????

vtmn215 · 04-15-2007, 01:38 AM

blue connector... 6 pin?... IIR the fuse box... lemme go check. Ya blue connector into the fuse box. In the fuse box, you will see 3 big runs of cable connected to the box. Starting from the top to the bottom, green, white and blue. Right below the blue connector on its left hand side, you will see an open spot, the blue 6-pin connector goes there.

***ImTheVoiceOfGod*** · 04-15-2007, 01:17 PM

Already did that one, theres another connecter that is the EXACT same as the female side of the blue one you are talking about.

vtmn215 · 04-15-2007, 02:23 PM

I havent the foggiest idea LOL.. I looked at the K2 kit that i have in my garage and saw that cable too... I ended up installing the OEM fog light kit for my 07 si. So now, I have an extra fog light kit in case mine gets broken meh. All I know is that if it works, don't fix it :)

truflip · 04-15-2007, 08:00 PM

is the k2 supposed to come with 15A fuse? the OEM comes with 20A..

***ImTheVoiceOfGod*** · 04-15-2007, 08:01 PM

Mine came with 15A, I used it and it works.

truflip · 04-15-2007, 09:21 PM

***ImTheVoiceOfGod*** · 04-15-2007, 09:24 PM

How do you get the black plastic bolts off from the bottom? I used a flat head screw driver and flathead pliers and I manage to get the front 6 off but not the 4 inner ones. They just wont budge! Yes, I tried to pry the center of the bolt.
