fog light fuse?

Hey im having a problem with wiring for lights to my 2004 civic lx coupe.... Im pretty sure I have everything hooked up correctly, but I need to add a fuse for my fog lights. the problem is... there isn't a place for a fog light fuse under the dash, or under the hood... could someone give me a suggestion? thanks.

If you're using Honda OEM fog lights, this should work. The very bottom of the installation instructions tells you to hook the fog light harness into the under-dash fuse panel

Otherwise, if you're using the battery as the power source with a relay, go buy a 10A inline fuse assembly from a local auto parts store and wire it between the battery and the relay

Re: fog light fuse?

do you want it so you can turn them on whenever? or only when at least the parking lights are on?

Re: fog light fuse?

in any case, here's how I'd imagine it'd be wired up, the red +12VDC wire being one of your choice: hot at all times, hot when ignition in "acc", or hot when the parking lights are on, or hot when the headlights are on.
