Rep Power: 0 Headlight/foglight Wiring Replacement
Recently on my 2009 SI a truck dropped a large 4x4 piece of wood right in front of me...ended up knocking out my right side fog light and stripped off the fog lights easy connects and ended up knocking out the wheel well plastic covering.
Once I got home I pulled the tire off and discovered all the damage. The wiring looks pretty shredded since I was stuck in traffic and at least a hour drive before I could do anything...so all that loose wiring was hitting the tire while driving.
So now i need to replace that whole mess of wires....any recommendations? can it be done pretty easily myself? or will it require taking it to a mechanic?
I was able to get a wheel well cover but anybody know best place to get the replacement connectors to reattach it with? Wasn't sure what to google or what they were called.
Thanks

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

Check that link, you can purchase the connector shells and pigtails (wire + terminals) through your dealer, and rebuild the wire harness for the lights.
You might need to obtain additional wire from a parts store or something if needed.
