yea ur number 4 is ither a positive or its gona plug into you fuse box.

here is a pic. but its should go to the second port not the first. bc the switch should turn on and off with your parking lights.


hope this helps.

but fyi your harness looks like its been cut and rewired bc its really short.

#2 goes to your fuse box, #4 is your positive, connects to positive on the other side of your firewall. just pull the rubber sleeve back on both positives
#5 is your switch ground

Well I have a couple of questions to ask you. It has nothing to do with the current topic.


So how in the world do you pull bitches with a civic?

Do you pop your collar and tell them you're hot ****?

Do you tell them that you have a huge mansion and you needed 35 miles per gallon?

Wtf?

Maybe it's where you live....

Because the women here don't like slow cars.

here's the instructions for wiring them up with the password fog light kit: http://www.passwordjdm.com/Ins...s.pdf

You should be able to use that and adapt your kit accordingly.

if you are having so much issues figuring what the wires go.
i highly suggest you take it to a pro and pay the price.
making wrong connections and burning things is gonna be more costly.

you fail.

Wiring foglights is about as easy as building a motor.

No seriously, it is.

All you gotta do is google that ****. For the foglights atleast. With motors (any damn motor), you just gotta make sure your clearances and torque specs are correct.

There's not much to it.

So unless you're a dumb *** [freak], I'm pretty sure you can take on this "little" task. But I did say "Unless you're a dumb *** [freak]..."

So IDK.

There are some instructions floating around the internet that tell you how to install genuine Honda fog lights. Those will tell you how to do most of the work for the OEM-style ones too. I recommend using them as far as you can. Their usefulness ends, however, when you get to the inside wiring harness. Ebay harnesses are different from OEM Honda ones. (With stock fogs, the system turns your fog lights off when your high beams are on. This is not so with Ebay fogs.)

i found out how to do them.. the links ppl where sending me from b4 was for the OEM fog lights.. the rely harness i have is different from the OEM.
thanks anyways.. and good link btw

looks good.

But are you going to:

1. Paint your grille

2. Paint your lip

3. Fix that huge gap between your grille and bumper

4. Fix the huge gaps between the hood and bumper

Naw I don't think I'm going to paint the grill or lip any time soon... maybe when I repaint the whole car.. Like a darker gray.. And for the gaps I'm getting to that.. I just don't have time to do it.. I guess when I I finish buying all my parts to boost the car. Then I will fix those gaps.. If u notice the right lid for the fog light kinda sticks out. The car has been in a crash b4 from the last owner.

Sucks man.

Cuz that car will definitely look a lot better from the front without those gaps.

But your car would look better anyway with a huge front mount.

Good luck.
