How long will it take ....

Hi Folks ...

At long last i got my second camry (First one was lost to ex) . It is a 2004 LE Made in Kentucky. I have read the forums and learned all I can about installing the fog lights.

I will at a later stage get the OEM turn signal stalk to complete the installation. I will be using one of the sets sold on Ebay ... I guess I haev to buy one which uses the 9006 bulbs as the harness is setup for that kind of bulb ?

My question is regarding the time it will take to physically install the fog lights. I am aware that I need to drop the front bumber cover, and cut the holes probably with a dremel tool, and then make the brackets, and put the fog lights in their place. My car already is wired for the lights, I found the cables dangling where the fog lights will go.

How long will it take for an average guy like me (I am pretty handy I should say) to drop the bumber cover, cut the holes, make the brackets and put everything back together ? Is a weekend long enough or shoudl I plan on longer for the JD weld to try ? which I never used before ....

Thanks a bunch for your opinions ....

I've never put in factory foglights since mine has them already, but as far as dropping the bumper, i did have to do that to replace my headlights. It took all of 10-15mins to drop it, install my lights and put it back on. So as far as that goes..there's your answer for taking off the bumper.
