| hey guys, so i ran into the same problem as you guys did and i found a kit online from courtesyparts for around 252 which is a factory kit with the foglights mounting screws and the foglight stalk. It was pretty easy to install, Ill do a writeup for you guys, sorry i didnt take any pics but it was pretty straight forward and shouldnt take more than 20 minutes to do. This is how I did the install: firstly dis connect the battery because you will be working with electrical components and its always best to have that disconnected. 1.) get underneath the fron clip of the car(wait for the engine to cool down) and unscrew the 3 torx bolts that are underneath the lighting area(they will be the 3 on the extreme left or right depending on which side you start on first) they should be a Torx 20/25 screw. 2.) bend the underbody panel into a piece of the body that is directly behind it, dont worry it shouldnt break unless somehow its briddle and let it hold there. 3.) look up and you should see the foglight wiring clip that clips into the back of the foglight housing. 4.) clean the area that is holding the foglight covers in place and reach up into the area where you bent the plasic back and find the clip that is holding it on and simply push it out from behind the cover its self 5.) grab the correct foglight for the side you are working on, you will notice that the area for the screw to go in will match up with the side you are working on and slide it into place. 6.) put the screw into place and tighten it down, might be a good idea to use some thread locker on it to ensure it stays in place. 7.) grab the wiring that goes into the foglight housing, it will be bundled with a zip tie that is easily broken and isnt needed, and plug it in, the clip should be facing up when you do this 8.) repeat for the opposite side. Now for the turn signal stalk, this is really easy and straight forward. 1.) get a long handeled #2 philips screw driver and unscrew the 3 screws holding the housing together over the turn signal/wiper controll stalks 2.) adjust your steering wheel angle to the full down position and gently dissasemble the housing by seperating the two halves, very easily done 3.) I believe that you push or pull out the old turn signal stalk i cant remember exactly which it is but if you look at the new one you should be able to figure out which is correct 4.) put the new turn signal stalk into place 5.) reassemble the housing cover Reconnect your battery and voila its done and done a heck of a lot cheaper than going to a dealership, my local wanted 600 for parts and labor. I think this was easy enough to save myself a few bucks. I hope this helps |

| yes I am sorry i thought i said that, I will check the post and edit if necessary. There is prewiring in place for the fog lights. The courtesyparts website didnt specify a trim level, just that their kit was for model years 2011+ so im unsure about what to do for those with previous model years. I would call courtesy nissan and ask them if they have a kit for those model years.

| I just installed the ome fog light set and it was a pretty easy install.....took ne a little more than an hour. The instructions that come with the set are easy to follow. Hardest part was tightening the screws that hold the lights in. I used an 8mm gearwrentch ....you gotta work blind so it takes a little dexterity and patients but its not too bad with the gearwrench. They really make the Rogue front clip look complete and put out a noticeable amount of light. |
