Here is my lil how-to plug Svt foglamps when you only have normal fogs
1.I cut off the connector letting it 4 inches of each wire

2.I cut 12 inches of wire for each one

3.I welded them together so they will last longer

4.I put shrinkable tubing over the welding so there will be no corrosion on my wires

5.I added more plastic loom for better protection and tie-rapped it to the radiator support so they wont move or scratch on borders... original connectors aren't the good one they fit really tight and hold on well so i didn't replace them

6. Finally do it for each wires (I almost forgot at the other end i also welded the wires and put shrinkable tubing on it)
7. Here's the final result!

1. looks great..

2. need wheels other than stock..

3. heat shrink is not to protect short, it will crack over time..
best method is to wrap them using eletrical tape than use heat shrink over it to hold electiral tape in its place..


that is all i wanted to say

i like the looks man and yea....get some different rims

heatshink works good enough, electrical tape can/will start comming off when the temperature will change (summer/winter)


My Svt Front On My Sedan - oldeguy - 09-26-2007

looks great....even the rims!


My Svt Front On My Sedan - mpcv2000 - 09-26-2007

Nice.

What's wrong with the lip???

It looks a little warped :blink:

Also, nik....read the post agin. Electrical tape UNDER the shrink wrap to keep it in place.

I like it, you've obviously put a lot of thought and effort into this project and it shows in the finished result (I always thought the SVT front end looked real nice :))

I have the entire silver SVT car I'm selling. Includes all bumpers.


My Svt Front On My Sedan - metal_til_deth - 09-27-2007

for the rims ill answer one thing at a time! im only a 17 years old student and this way it keep it's sleeper look!
for the shrink tube: it's way better than electrical tape when you have good shrinkable tubing when you buy crap you have crap... my father's towing wiring has been done this way 5 or 6 years ago and there's still no problem...

Thanks for appreciation
for depreciation: critic is good when well justified... :D i can accept critic im not close-minded on this!

Any suggestion on how to niteshade my flashers in the front grille??? Which product should i buy, where is it available, how much does it cost? that would be helpful thanks!


My Svt Front On My Sedan - Dimitri - 09-28-2007

Front end looks good! There's a product called "NiteShade" I believe Canadian Tire sells it in and around 10-11 bucks.


My Svt Front On My Sedan - SVT ZX3 - 09-29-2007

Looks great, and somewhat familiar.........

Yes this works...I have used it on My SVT grill and the ZX3 grill it didn't turn out well

There is some coating or something that the niteshade tint doesn't react well with....I would say try window staining paint that you can get at any craft store

The Niteshade tint that I used was from Performance inprovements "VHT" $12
