did you get the mounting brackets with your lights? the brackets should bolt to the bumper. should be plug and play with the brackets. the wiring is already there. im assuming you got the control switch too. it does take a bit of work to get it in (maybe its just me).

did the fog lights come with brackets? if they did then they bolt in as shown in the diagram below:



do you know how to wire them up?

oh, didn't see the above post. well if you already have the wiring there, then piece of cake. just find the wiring and connect it to the fog lights...of course you want to connect them to the fog lights BEFORE bolting them in

yea i have the wiring with the original plugs actually... but my car never had fogs (no switch inside) i am trying to figure out how to wire them to come on with the low beams (always) and off with the high... without a switch, so whenever my lows are on, the fogs are on.....

i am SO bad at wiring / electrical

that type of functionality is already in the CPU that controls the lights. you just have to know which wires to connect to for the switch. it is in the FSM...

is it me or are those foglights in the brake air duct and doesn't that hurt your brakes?

yes, they are in the way of the brake duct inlet, but the effect will be minimal. i don't think you will notice unless you are doing some serious road racing, at which point i don't think you would need the fog lights anyways...or you could always take them out when you are at the track.
