This is exactly what we need...if we can only get the two mesh grille for the fogs then we are good to go. Hopefully, the guy selling $100 for two. We dont need the center one.

quick update

Mina gallery does sell just x2 corner meshes.

im getting a quote from them now including mesh replacement and installation of DRL..

they mention that TRUE DRL requires a seperate ballast and not just connection to 12V source
