Hella 500's
Hey guys, thanks to WasklyWabbit and Corey's help with their write-ups, I sucessfully installed my Hella 500's this weekend. A pretty easy install. I got the OEM fog light switch from the dealership and just followed the writeups from Brian and Corey.
I think that they look great on my 2nd generation.
Thanks for the great write ups,
Chris
P.S.
1.) Did you guys use any paint on the bumper where you drilled through to inhibit rust. I used some rubber grommets up against the chrome for protection.
2.) Is it ok to have several things ground on the same place?
Example: Can both the lights ground on the same bolt or do they need to be seperate?
Thanks again

2. I ground everything off the same ground that the battery uses and ran both light ground wires together and then to the ground. Works fine that way and easier to de-bug if something goes wrong.
This thread needs some

The difference between the three being an RF signal, constant DC drain, and spikey DC current.
Congrats on the install!

Yea some pics would be nice. Maybe I can borrow one from work and post some pics.
I guess that I will paint the unsealed chrome to protect it.
Thanks for the tips.
The next install will be differential breathers front/rear and amsoil in the tranny and differentials.
