TheGunny Posted November 11, 2006 Report Share Posted November 11, 2006 So i decided to install some fog lights the other day because it was foggy and i wanted fog lights. So i went down to the local walmart and grabbed some offroad lights i think they were baja desert fox lights, nothing fancy only like 20 bucks. They came with some wire and and an inline fuse. Before i go further i really like toggle switches so this was just one more thing for me to put a switch to as well. so i drilled some holes in the plastic peices and put some toggle switches and led's so when the switches are on..... the switch on the far right is for some led lights i put under my dash so at night time there is a red glow at your feet, maybe kinda ricey but i like it picture doesn't look that great but i think its sweet The switch to the left is for the fog lights, still need to put 2 more switches in but havn't figured out what they will do yet, so if anyone has any suggestions ... wiring the lights was probably the worst part of the deal. because i had to go through the firewall. We went from the positive of the battery to the switch, then took the positive of the switch and ran it to the lights, and just ran the lights in series to a ground. it was a little more complicated then that to get the led to work at the same time, so if your interested just pm me. ............ continued.......................

TheGunny Posted November 11, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 11, 2006 Mounting the lights wasn't that bad there under the front bumber there is a metal plate with some holes in the plate so i saw these holes and decided that was my mounting point so a purchased some long bolts and just bolted both sides of the lights and both sides of the hole. i put the lights at the desired level and secured them. I'm not sure what the metal plate is for and on bumpy roads the lights bounce a little but ... i thught they turned out pretty good though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chpspecial Posted November 11, 2006 Report Share Posted November 11, 2006 Install looks good, but maybe you should have ran a relay instead of directly trough a swithch. That is how I had mine done in my 94 and there was less heat and load on the switch. Plus light output was noticeably better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AK04SS Posted February 14, 2008 Report Share Posted February 14, 2008 do you remember what size the bolts were? the weather's been kinda crappy up here, and I kinda want Fogs to supplement my HIDs. btw, HIDs suck in whiteout conditions! hahaha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wody Posted February 14, 2008 Report Share Posted February 14, 2008 switches are fun...i was wondering why you didn't put them both on one switch, but why the hell not have two switches! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
