Well, after removing my front bumper to try and straighten it out a little bit (naturally I broke the headlight washer T-connector aaaaaaaaand both jets on the bumper...it was a heck of a day) I noticed that my RF fog light wont initially turn on without a little -tap-. It works while driving as it is being -tapped- by the road bumps. Do you think I didnt plug it all back up good enough/put the ground right/or is it dying? And it is impossible to replace the bulb right, have to do the whole thing on the D1?

Looks like there may be a poor ground ... or the bulb was not installed correctly. It is possible to install the bulb incorretly.

Well, I think that the black wire that comes out the top (in the engine compartment) along with the other wires is the ground, right? So I threaded that one through a hole in the wall behind the headlight, where it usually is at, and no problems anymore. So if that black wire on the fogs is the ground, then the issue was grounding, and solved..thanks for the 2nd opinion!
