    My is in no way hooked up to the car except through the battery and ground. On mine, when the switch is on, it lights up bright red so I never can forget to turn them off, and plus, they are so bright, that you would have to be blind not to see the glow or the reflection off a wall.

            Power it from the battery's positive... fuse it also.

              Man, this is an old post...ne ways, They either PIAA or Piolt or something with a P, Fog lights that I got for 20 bucks at autozone. Connected to the positive box just above and to the left of the batery and it should come with everything you need except of tools ofcourse. As you can see from all the pics, it kind of gives you an idea of the set up.

              BTW, the people that make these fog lights called them driving lights and had a set of Fog lights for the same price and same size and all right next to it, but the ones with the name fog lights are those yellow lights which I would not recommened anyone getting cuz they look stupid as hell with yellow fogs and white headlights. and plus these clear lense ones are real bright and double the amount of light at night so they were worth the 20 bucks and five hour install.

                    Yup, exactly the ones I have. I'm thinking about relocating mine further back so that they look more factory, what do you plan to do? Hang them like mine or inplace of the black nostril pannels? Its hard to fit them their and they look croket(sp?) but I think you could cut away that the Pannel holdings for it to come out straight, well, either way, let me know if you get them or if you need any help wiring.

                      I won some off ebay, and am waiting for shipping and price... I also got some Xenon bulbs to match my headlights.

                      I already have some small foglights that I'm replacing, but thanks for the offer. I love how you mounted your light switch though! I was thinking about doing something like that, or trying to get some kind of relay. But I don't think I want to go that far yet.

                      I am thinking of removing the black plate thingy, but I think it'll be harder to install like that. It's not easy installing it, is it? Doing my current ones took forever... plus, somehow, everytime I work on my car it seems to get dark outside... I always start in the late afternoons to avoid the sunheat, but then I always end up losing all that light! [img]smile.gif[/img]

                      I'll let you know how I do it when it arrives!
