the only wire that i could say that vaguely resembles a light grey like the one in the pic that the OP posted is a dark charcoal one, and its wrapped with the other wires, not exposed like it is in the pic...

 

Nice write up

has nething bad happen to anyones car yet with this mod just curious??

 

nope. mine work great

 

i'm all over this.....can't wait

 

thats not independent. for that mod, your parking lights have to be on to turn on the fog light. i did that mod and realized its not what i wanted so i plan to do this one...

 

I also gave instructions on wiring them to come on independent in that thread.

 

I put my fogs in today....they look real nice......i pulled the gray and moved it to the green, no problem. The right tools and some patience to do the job. I wired the fogs got it all together and they didn't work! I went over everything again, swiched the wires and they still didn't work. I hooked one up directly to the battery and it worked? Come to relize.....my freakin high-beams were on!!! I had it right the first time.....!!!! All good now, nothing is easy

 

Don't be upset with yourself, I epic fail all the time too.

 

na.....it's the usual for me...realizing how easy it could have been...lol I've said this all over the place incase you haven't heard.....i have white leds under the fogs, i need really WHITE bulbs and try to match....any ideas? My headlights are smoked so that's a wash....

 

Silverstar bulbs have a nice color in my opinion, yet they look yellow compared to 4300k HID and hyper white LED's. My suggestion is hyper yellow Nokya's. I have the Nokya's and I think they make a nice contrast to my 4300k HID's. and hyper white 194's in my running lamps.

 

how do you install HID's on the fog lights? I just got my fogs in the mail today and will get to work later.....just dont see how i would plug HIDs in to them....

 

YOU can put hid in the fog but just be carefull because it will be a close fit and if you get inpatient , you might brake a bulb.......( i did) if you want i can show you pictures of mine ? jrd2007tc

 

Just did this on my 09 scion, works great

 

how much amps do the foglight relay need? can i hook it up to a 7.5 fuse?

 

ima go do mines right now with a flashlight

 

I have a 2013 tc with oem fogs, would the color and location of the wire be the same ???
