HELP... Can't wire damn fog lights
I bought oem style fog lights and the connector doesn't fit into the one near the headlight provided by honda to speed up installation. I have to get these wires int the interior of my car from my enegine. how the heck do i do that??? I don't see any openings. Should I just find the femal connector from my honda dealership and splice the wires i have now and reconnect. Or should i fins my way in to interior? and how?
Thanx!!

Rep Power: 0 Maybe I didnt look hard enough, but the way to the cabin from the engine compartment is through a hole with a rubber gromite in it right under the glovebox behind the carpet, kinda where your toe on your left foot might be. This is the only one I found, its an easy one. I found this and used this one for my car sterio. good luck hope this helps. dont have access to my car right now or id take a pic to show ya.

Rep Power: 0 you bought oem headlights, and had to run wires inside the car?? the harnesses are built so that on is put under the hood that ends up near the fuse box. there is another harness inside that goes from the fuse box inside to the harness inside the center console. can anyone else back me up with this?? no one had to do any splicing, routing, or cutting, correct??
my mistake, didnt realize they were oem "style" do you have pics of them?

Dude Did you read my first post???
"I bought oem style fog lights ". They're not oem. I read the OEM instructions. The connector didn't fit into the one honda provides. I'm sure the real OEM foglights fit. But mine didn't. Read before you make yourself looks stupid.

Rep Power: 0 All you had to do was go back and delete what you wrote. Here [IMG]i/expressions/beer_yum.gif[/IMG] just read next time man. I'll have pics of my car soon. They're nice but not broight enough and noe Xenon h11 bulbs out yet so I gotta wait. I would def buy them if I were you. I saved a lot of money. Get them on ebay or from Pro Car parts. The only pain was wiring it but if you do get the. Just do What I did they work fine. If I had to wire them again. I'm sure it would take me less that 30 min. Good luck with them. If you need help just email. Email Thats if you're buying them. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/IMG]

Rep Power: 0 ummm...if you payed attention, i went back and edited and said i just noticed you said they were "oem style" (before any other people posted) so finish reading my post before telling me to read more carefully. and i wasnt asking for pics bc i wanted to buy them, i already have the oem ones on my car, hence the reason i originally questioned why you needed to route the wires. and i still dont get how i look stupid for trying to help out, youre the one that couldnt find a way through the firewall, but i guess that means i am stupid.
