Default 95 accord - wiring foglights, help?

i never got done with my wiring, it got rainey and i just unwired them and stopped.

basically, im going to run the wires down the side of the front clip, the right circle on the picture, but im trying to figure out the best way to get my wire from the battery (left) to the hole (right). im stumpted.

i dont understand why you would need that wire from the battery. the harness that i used wasnt hooked up to the battery. so im a little confused.

yes, but most kits, even the generic ones, have a plug that will plug into the underdash fusebox for power, therefore no direct battery connection is needed.
but if you need to go to the battery, go along the firewall towards the bottom then up the framerail then to the foglights. my opinion

Here is how mine is ran....
This is where I got my main power from... This shows where the wire is connected to, and shows where it exits the fuse block.

Here is a little diagram where all the wires are ran to.

Why are you installing foglights when your engine is in such need of attention?
I see a leaking distributor O-ring, leaking valve gover gasket, newer master cylinder with black brake fluid, black clutch fluid, black p/s fluid, corroded battery terminals and probably some other things that I can't see in that picture.
BLKFLSH~ where is your quote when I need it??
