Placed my order today!Arrived a few days later, pretty easy to install. Work great! They can be seen on a bright sunny day better than the stock headlights. BRP needs to be thinking LED's.

Does anyone have the instructions for the fog light kit?
I bought a demo 2015 F3-S, and the fog lights were removed, but they forgot to remove the fog light switch. And I was wondering if I could use the original wiring and install a set of my own. So with that in mind I was wondering if anyone had an original set of instructions for the install?
Just ordered mine. Thanks for the info in this post.
We just put 17 more kits together this weekend and that's all that's left till the rest of the switches come it. We should have good stock for Spyderfest and we will be doing installs there.

Received my LED fog light kit from Lamonster Garage today. I had it installed in an hour from start to finish. Just as he said, easy plug and play! I love the lights! Sure beats the OEM kit that BRP wants $510 for!

What did you do to get the wire off the plastic circle? I watched Lamont's video and for the life of me can't get it detached. I'm afraid I will eventually rip the wire out.

There is a release right in the middle of the plug.
Correct. As Lamont says there is a release on the plug. It's at the bottom of the plug next to the wiring. Just push the release as you pull on the plug.

I just installed my fog lights yesterday; other than dropping a plastic rivet and losing it inside the bike, it took about forty minutes. Now I have to wait two weeks for a replacement rivet to ship from Quebec. They are a great product and the installation video helped. One question though, other than the LED rings, do you know of anything to trim out the installation? Right now I'm considering modifying the blanks for a more "custom" and clean look around the fog lights. Perhaps you could develop a pattern for others to do the same thing since the "blanks just get thrown away.

If you release the blank plate from the mount, you can pull the entire thing out into the open and easily see the catch.

Well I took the blanks, and used a 2 1/4" holesaw to cut holes in them, went a little large to allow airflow to cool the lights. First one came out perfectly, broke the second one. I guess now, it's order the parts from Quebec. For some reason they call them heatshields. They are already cut out for the stock fog lights, so modifying them to fit the Lamonster ones should be easy plus they are fairly cheap at less than ten bucks each.

So after these fog lights are installed they leave gaps between the lights a bike?
When you do this job, be very careful putting the panel screws back in. Don't do what I did! I turned a simple job into a nightmare. Once that brass thingy in the inner panel keeps turning, you're screwed!

I had the same thing happen after removing and reinstalling the left side panel over 10 times (doing mods). Haven't replaced the brass female thingy yet because the part on cheap cycles's pic is not clear. If you get a replacement please post up. Hopefully the entire bracket won't have to be replaced. Until then, using zip tie.

Yes, I did have the whole inner panel replaced. I had broken off the whole corner of the inner fiberglass panel trying to get the screw out. The part was only $69.00 and I was tempted to do it myself. But, when I "fix" things, sometimes I break something else. And I didn't know if other parts, i.e. screws, had to be ordered. So I let the dealer to the whole job. It's a new bike and I can't stand broken things. It cost me about $245 to fix. Hope It doesn't happen again.

If you spin one of the brass inserts but do not break the plastic frame its glued into, you can replace the insert. EZ-LOK makes a kit that works pretty well. Essentially you pull out the old insert, drill the hole slightly larger and clean using the supplied bit the thread in the knife thread insert using the tool provided. End result is a new M5 or M6 threaded insert locked into the plastic frame.
Be careful installing the screws to line them up and thread them by hand. Do not use power tools on these. Ask me how I know all this.....

I believe the "culprit" is the "old Loctite" left on the threads. If the bolt starts to tighten before fully inserted you need to back it out and clean the threads. I finally learned after the second incident!

Can you elaborate further on the E-Z lok fix for this? Where can it be purchased, etc.. Thanks
