Default Ebay Foglights.

Hey guys,

I bought some ebay foglights a while back for my 99 civic sedan and have been away for school. I wanted to install them this winter break but realized that they didn't come with a foglight switch. So I picked up an oem foglight switch but it doesn't fit the cheap ebay harness. Anyone know where I can find the ebay switch or any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Just wire them into your parking lights. That's what I did and they work great.

yeas you need to run a relay and a fuse, ts to much power to draw off of just your parking light hot wire, local auto parts stores sell basic 4 pin relays for pretty cheap and just run a 10amp fuse one the power wire. if you have common knowlegde of auto/elec. this should be a breeze. good luck

well, i still have have the harness, relay, inline fuse, and switch. when i went to rewire everything, only one or two of the wires in between the two fogs werer pretty much fried. the rest weren't damamged to bad, but were replaced anyways.

would i keep everything in the same locations? or how/where would i be connecting the wiring. i can do little asic common sense things with wiring, but its deff not my forte. im better at turning wrenches

The switch password offers is for the JDM application only. The only switch that will plug up to your harness is the replica oem/jdm switch (which is made by the knock off companys like depo).

What i did was just buy a on/off switch from my local autopart store and wire that up.
