I was using the ebay plugs in to the fuse box and i knew i had it right but it would not work so i broke out the trusty test light and went to work. found out that i had power before the plugs but not after so off came the plugs and i had them up and going in 20min. the only thing is my switch light stays on all the time when the key is turned on. i will rewire it later i was just tired of messing with it.

so what exactly are you guys stuck on? thoseDIY pics was basically the best i've seen... fogs should work after following those steps...

once you have the fogs, relay, switch, and grounds connected...
you should only have 2 plugs that need to go into the fuse box.
one for constant power and one for low beam. they are right next to each other.

there should be two connectors leftover which i have found to be useless. in all honesty it took me forever (months of frustration/giving up) to get them to work... but i'd recommend making your own harness because the switch is crappy and the stock switch will require modification to the harness anyway.

all thorse problems...thats another reason i jus wired mine into the running lights. ok so they are on all the time, no matter if my hi or low beams are on...IDC about that. more light = more night vision. simple solution in my eyes. easily reversable if you decide to remove them andalot less hassle takes install time down to 1/2 hr pretty much.

^ thanks dude i guess where the fuse is it has 3pin for the power and on my 4pin harness the power was all the way to the left not meeting the power connection from the fuse..and i couldnt remove it to put it on the far right so i just cut the one that is supose to plug into the kick panel and tap it to the other one that goes where the fuse is since that one is all the way on the far right lol but yea mines get really hot too and smokes come out of it im guessin it has to break in and its smoking from the glue..anyways i found a website that has the oem switch for 10bucks!
