Exterior light wiring - aftermarket fog lights?
Hi all,
Not a Scion owner here, but I'm looking to get my sister a gift for the holidays, and thought installing some fog lights on her 2006 xA would be nice.
I'll likely pick up some aftermarket lights, and either mount them in the plastic lattice covering the housing or make some kind of bracket for them. I want them to function like OEM fogs; on with low beams only (to prevent problems during inspection)
I found a few posts about a factory wiring harness ready to go for the OEM fog lights, and would ideally like to use this since it's not being used and I can cut it apart with no ill-effects. Since I'm not looking at the car now (she's away at college) I was wondering if anyone knew what colors are what in that wiring harness?
Worst comes to worst, I'll just wire them up to the battery with a fuse and relay them off the low beam. Does anyone know where and what color the low beam wire is, or which wire in the wiring harness will trigger the lights the same way?
Thanks for any help, I'll let you know how it turns out!
I don't know if this should be here or in the Exterior board, please let me know and I will delete/move it. Thanks
