    So has anyone with a Demello bumper installed these? I really want to order a set but am worried about them not fitting. Thanks

    Sorry about that! They're looking great, just waiting on molding/production now and we will get them listed online. I haven't posted a photo but will be sure to do so on Monday.

    I believe the fog pockets are the same size as 2nd gen.

    So the lights fit in the socket...but because @JDEMELLO has different size slots the standard carriage bolts that come with the SS3 don't work. I bought the specs sent me and those don't work either. I'm about to give up and just bore out the slots myself.

    Edit**** 1/4 bolt works but not a carriage bolt cause it will spin in the slot. Hex bolt. Get a wide washer because torque pressure will fold the washer into the slot.

    It would have been a tight fit...the pocket on the demello is octagon shape and the round pounds would have a little adjustment problems. Granted I am sure you could make it work and technically it is a 4 inch pocket. I still owe you pics

    Sorry, here are some photos! Pretty basic, but it's a clean look once installed. We are just a few weeks out, waiting on the production of the brackets themselves which has been slightly delayed. Thanks!

    Are you able to easily add the yellow covers to the direct for replacement kit? Or that something that’s only an option if they are more universally mounted?

    It's not possible to use the covers with the 2012+ kit. They can be used with any universal setup, and they do work with the previous years setup which is coming soon. Thanks!
