got a set of fog lights off ebay. there nice and all but i no it didnt come with the relay i need. ive heard i can get it from sparkstoyota.com but where does it go? from the switch to the other wire plug thats under my dash? any help would be great.

 

no one has OEM foglights??

 

Bump, I'd like to know. Are these foglights that you got the OEM knockoffs for around 70 bucks or something? If so, let me know how they work once you get them going.

 

hope this helps And I have a relay 12.00 Shipped.. Let me know.

If you still need to get rid of your relay, i will take it off your hands for $12 PM me. not to steal it from NastysXB though

 

yea i tried to pm him but he never got back to me?

 

sorry guys I have been out of town taking care of some business. I have two of these so just pm me and and I can tell you whee to send the money

Thanks Eddie

 

the relay goes behind the fuse box it is the farthest to the left i will try to get you the pix

 

Is the relay really needed? I will ONLY use my fogs at certain times so would hooking it up to a switch with constant power be such a bad idea?

 

Okay i got the relay from scyon thanks!!

New problem= switch that came with fog lights does not plug into the conn. thats in my dash??? what do i do? PICS...






Switch has 4 prongs and wire in dash only has 2... and it doesnt fit? help me plezzzz

 

No, it is not needed.

 

I was told it could over heat the switch and cause a possible flame

 

ok i got my relay also, but on my 06 i cant find where i put the relay. are the 06 different? can someone post a pic for me?
thanks

 

do you have a picture of the front of the switch? does it light up?

 

The only thing a relay does is to supply power to your fog lights when "only" your headlights are on, and they then must be on low beam. That way, you can't run your fogs alone, or at the same time as your high beams.

Just run your power wire (with an inline fuse holder of the proper amperage) directly to switched power. Then you can run your fogs anytime you wish, and the fuse will protect you from overload.

 

well i got pm'ed with the answer to your question so here is what he said:

"had this problem too with the ebay one. the switch they gave is the wrong one. i just bought a switch from autozone and just customed it on one of the blanks. it is easy to do. power to power ground to ground. easy."

you could get this one to work, but you will need to find out which pin is what. i would just say trial and error on it.

 

so what wires are power and whats ground on the wires coming outa my dash? or do i just hook each wire to a side of the switch? because theres only 2 wires..

 

the black/white is ground and the green is power

 

can you send me a pic of where you put your relay?

 

Fig 5. pages 4 and 5 of 7 is where you can find where the relay goes.. (c5 and c6)

Hope that helps
