Help installing JDM fog lights on my 98 civic
OK i traded a friend of mine the square looking JDM OEM foglights for a suspension install.
Well he doesnt have the insturctions and i can figure out how all the brackets mate up. Im sure I can figure out the wiring for them. I think he got the lights through JDMshit.com. Please help me someone

they'd only be for the round lights
Its hard to explain how they go together w/ words or even ascii...but I'll try
you have 2 sets of brackets: ones that have an extension on the sides, and short ones that are L shape
The extension bracket goes on the outside of the holes on the bumper (look and you'll see em), with the extension end toward the center of the bumper. The L peice goes behind that, over the top of the mounting location.
The 2 brackets sandwich together nicely, over the actual bumper section.
Hope that helps...if not maybe someone else can chime in

Re: (pdiggitydogg)
OK thanks I think i have figured that part out.
Now my next delima. I dont want to place the swetich in the center consol. I really want to place in the little section with the sunroof and mirror controls. Problem is it is just a tad to small. Anyone have any creative ideas for the switch?

it shouldnt be "too small" at all.
Mine fit in that spot perfectly...its where its supposed to go.
If it really wont work, just do some filing around the switch itself to shrink it down a little
