what kind of foglights? OEM style or some aftermarket lights (ie. Piaa, Pilot, Blazer etc.)? I've installed OEM styles by Esuse and Depo (they have different harnesses) and some aftermarket lights by Pilot.

 

oem honda foglights

 

There is a website...that I cannot remember...that has all the diagrams on it. Something like http://www.honda...parts....com....I cannot remember. Google will be your friend though. Try looking up "Honda OEM Foglight Install"....You might see what you're looking for......Google owns me.

 

if it's for the genuine Honda foglights, here's a link:

nobody knows how to make a wiring harness for foglights?

This and its consecutive pages outlines what is necessary to hook up OEM fogs. About the harness....if you look on the first page you will see a harness....maybe you need to make it look like that.

 

i'm assuming you only have the 2 foglights themselves. i know on the OEM plugs you can open up the plug, take it off and the end of the wire will be exposed. i can't remember if it will be a male or female connect. you can go to Autozone or Kragen and buy some generic foglight wiring harnesses (Autozone has some by Pilot, Kragen has some by Blazer). you may also need to buy some male/female connectors. then you can follow the wiring diagram of the generic harness. you can mount the rocker switch on the blank panel by the defrost (those rocker switches may be too bright to be mounted there) or in one of the blank panels by the hand brake. i would recommend any harness that comes with a relay. those range between $9.99 - $14.99.

 

Yup....that is basically what you need. Doesn't get any easier than that. Unless you give "Newman" a holla and get a harness from him....he has them but I don't know if he has extras.

 

yea. if you're confused by those honda diagram (the oem fog harness is pretty damn intracit) just buy a premade one from an autoparts store and wire to ur oem switch (assuming u have one) or to one that comes in the kit. the pilot/depo oem replica kit is pretty silimar to the aftermarket wiring kits, except they use a factory style button

 

thanks guys, im headed to autozone right now

 

keep in mind that with a generic harness by Pilot or Blazer, the foglights will be operational even if the car is turned off and the key is removed from the ignition. my girlfriend's battery on her car died cuz she turned off her car but the foglights stayed on. of course, if you can find the wire for the parking lights, you can splice the power wire into the parking light wire, that way the foglights will only turn on if the parking lights are on.

parking light wire is a red/black wire under the dash and even behind the cluster.. it can be found many places on honda cars...

 

I've got an Esuse wiring harness that I could part with if you're interested. IM me
