Default Fog-light delete?

Looking do delete my foglights since i have an external oil-cooler & bumper exit, thus the extra air would help. Has anyone done a foglight delete? The computer doesn't act up if you don't have the foglight light-bulbs? Searched, but the only one I came across was from 7 years ago. Anyone know who makes a kit or pictures of your mesh grill fog-light delete would really help.

I don't know about the missing bulbs and what that may cause but I can tell you that the fog light area is a low pressure area. You won't get much airflow through those holes. There have been a couple of folks that devised small scoops to help with this. Just be aware that you won't see much/if any cooling help from doing this.

It's just to get more air to hit directly to my oil cooler (mounted in the driver side wheel well)!

That's good to know that bot running a bulb won't affect anything. I might just have it without screens until i can fab. out something. Can you post pictures of yours please sir?

You can program out the fob lights in the BCM programming via a tech II. Hence its the same way you program in the rear fob lights if added as well.

Here is a close up picture of mine. No problem with fog lights deleted. I actually used the fog light harness to power the fan for my trans cooler manually.

Low pressure area implies higher flow rate, FYI
