Yea there is fog light harnesses. I just got JDM foglights for mine. You're going to have to get the mounting brackets for the bumper if they're not there.

The owner before wired foglights on my 92 Si and did a pretty bad job with it... I can only turn on the fog lights if my headlights are on lol and my foglights aren't even working, I checked all of the connectors, could it be the power relay switch? it makes a click when I switch on and off (trying to turn on the fog lights).

the harnesses are there, and those connectors are the right ones.

the stock setup requires a subharness and relay and some other bs, and yes, with the honda setup you can only turn them on when the headlights are on.

I just wired mine in parallel with the parking lights.

the 2 connectors behind the bumper signals are indeed the connectors for USDM/JDM foggies, then there's a brown connector taped up near the steering column that you simply plug a relay into, then there is a connector behind the left tweeter cover for the switch for 92-93 ludes, and in 94-96's its under the cup holder.
mostly all the fogs i seen for sale come with the mounting bracket to the bumper, so you shoulndt hafta worry about that. all you gotta do is dremel out the dotted line on the back of the bumper.

voila, factory foggies!!

Anyone have a pictures of said plug near the steering column?? Or at least how many wires and colors that run to it?

I've had a set of JDM Fogs for years, just haven't felt like taking the time to install them because my lower front bumper is all screwed..
