you wouldn't happen to have a pic of this, would you?

So I installed my ZL1 bumper today and I have a question. I got my kit from a diffferent source, not gen5diy, and I had to get the Fog light harness seperately. I got harness part number 22840497. All the lights work with the exception of the fogs. I have a 2011 V6 with RS package. Is it a programming issue??

The kit we sale come with a harness made to work the new fogs only, the harness you have is the ZL1 "fog light harness from GM" Its not a "programming issue" there are no wires going from the computer to the rest of the car to let you program.

Here is what you need, the "ZL1 FZ1 harness" from said site

So the part I got is not correct? That sucks. I guess I will have to order your harness since its different right?

Correct. 2SSRS' harness is plug and play and will do exactly what you're wanting.

I would also try to return the GM harness.

Cool. I'm curious whats different about Ofers harness compared to the one from the chevy parts place.

2SSRS@Gen5diy · 06-14-2013, 09:07 AM

The one i make is an add on to the stock harness you got with the car, it was meant so you dont need to buy the GM harness, it will come with the 2 connecters that are not on your old harness to plug in to the new fogs that are needed for the ZL1 fogs.

Then it connects to the power wire in the fuse box, from there it goes inline to the bumper harness and makes them come on any time your headlights come on.

Oh I see! Now it all makes sense. Thanks! I should be placing an order for your harness in the near future. I guess my new fogs will just be for show. Haha

All the part numbers and diagrams were removed from the original post?

ScReW · 06-17-2013, 03:43 AM

Finally did mine conversion....
everything was fine except delivery of all components)))))

Pagliaro · 06-17-2013, 08:01 AM

^ I thought our North American plates ruined the look of the front end but that plate really takes away from the look of the ZL1 front end.

Told ya, you should have went with Ofer's kit.

j/k hope you get it all worked out.

Mamooth · 06-26-2013, 12:54 PM

Having my kit from Ofer installed,

the body shop called me with some problems and hopefully you guys can give me some info:

Front wheel well liners do not match? Should I buy new ones? I assume this is because of the air ducting in ZL1?

Front air channels are different in lower bumper... they said they removed them and left them out... how worried should I be about this? I thought there was ducting to route to the brakes on the zl1 and you just remove the pieces of it for this install?

Fog lights (with the conversion harness from Ofer) come on for a second and immediately go back off... has anyone had this happen?
