Aftermarket Foglights 850

posted by  someone claiming to be Black850 on  Fri Mar 28 19:50 CST 2003 [RELATED]

Hi, I bought a set of aftermarket foglights for my car and have surveyed the car's wiring. I see 2 sets of male wire harnesses not connected to anything on both sides of the bumper. Can I cut the harness and just hook the 2 wires to the aftermarket foglight harness? What else will I need to get this lights working?

Is one of the wires green-orange striped? If so, these are the foglight leads. You also want the OEM switch, which you can get at the dealer. Now here's your choice. Go with (A) factory wiring (foglights only come on when the headlights are also on) or (B) wire them up so you can turn on the foglights by themselves. If (A) then buy the factory relay. If (B) then download n0v8or's special instructions
