Installed yesterday; took five hours but so worth it. $438.00 from dealer. NO, you do not have to remove the bumper to install these.

They look great....I looked back a few posts, did not see were you got them from....? and installation was 438. so total cost ..if you don't mind sharing..

I installed LED's in the upper half of the stock fog lights and programmed them for continuos DRL which matches the headlights pretty nice....

True about not getting your money back...I was temped in trading in my 2011 CM of a 2012 JCW CM, and everything I added could of been removed and the dealer would of offered the same $$...Sell it on your own to a private party....that's usually were you'll get some return back....

But as said...You do the upgrades/add on's for your own enjoyment..not necessarily what happens down the road.

What dealer do you use....See your a neighbor of sorts....

Do you happen to have a link for an install guide for these by chance? Car looks fantastic! Curious how difficult it is to get wiring thru bulk head

Here are the instructions I found:

https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...ing-lights.pdf

This installation requires that you remove the wipers and cowling under the wipers.

I tapped into the power from the 12 volt port on the center console. This setup is just looking for a 12 volt signal to activate the system. All power requirements come from the main fuse box under the bonnet. Keeps you from having to figure out or even mess with the big wiring harness.
