Installed OEM fogs this weekend.........
I found a set of brand new in the box foglights on the forums here so i purchased them
skimmed through the install paperwork and i went to work....
The popping out of the lenses....cake
The installing of the fogs and plugging harness.....cake
The dash switch....cake
Relay.... horrible lol I'm 6'4 220lbs and my hands are just too damn big lol
So i finally get the thing in.... i pop the key in to test them annnnnnnnnnd.........
Nothing..
So i recheck all the connections.....plugs.....
Now i'm thinking i bought my xB used and it had some components in the front so maybe they rigged the wiring...
Then after about 3 beers i'm like hold up
I remember someone here saying how the scion xB was so cheap they left out basic things to keep the cost down (like the cabin filters lol )
So i'm like i bet you these bastards didn't give me a fuse.
Sure enough... i check the slot NOTHING lol
So i went and picked that up, bamn works.
Always fun wasting time but i'm learning more about this thing the more i take it apart, i've been a honda guy for about 10yrs but this car comes apart so easy that its almost funny =D
Thought you guys would get a kick out of it.
I snapped a quick iphone pick of the front when i went for my oil change

Someone on another forum gave me his used one but i still have it in the closet ( i think)
