Default Some knowledge on wireing

So I dont want to spend 280 on foglights so I want to install aftermarket ones. I just want help on the basic steps, never done it before but the only part I seem to not really understand is wire in to a relay. And also does anyone know how I can have the fogs turn on and off when I turn on my headlights aswell? Any advice would greatly be appreciated thank you

um, I'm not real sure, but I couldn't see it being to terribly different just the actual fog light is probably different but you never know. Might be able to get in contact with trdsparks.com and ask them.

This is how you install foglights in the tC2:

1. Install relay in its appropriate socket (located behind head unit)
2. Run provided wire loom to appropriate locations, be sure to ground it too
3. Screw and clip in foglight lenses, then clip in trim bezel

Tip: Removal of the front bumper will make running and grounding the provided loom much easier

Personal opinion: don't attempt to rewire the fogs to turn on with headlights. Reasons being, its illegal in most states to have fogs on in non-inclimate weather, and if you don't understand how a relay works you shouldn't be cutting into the factory wiring. You're only going to ruin your car. If you're determined to rewire, do some research and proceed with caution. Good luck

This kit runs independently of factory system. 4 connections, and run a few wires. Very easy.
