Title: Factory fog lamps
Post by: 86caprirs on April 27, 2010, 10:01:51 PM
I am doing the TC nose on my car. I heard that there is already the connectors in the harness on my sport for the fog lamps? If this is true where do I look for them? One should be by the head light switch for the fog lamp switch. The other is on the drivers side frame rail?

Thanks

My Sport has zero provisions already installed for the fog lamps.Go buy a fog light wiring kit at Autozone or wherever,and hook them up.The kits are cheap and have the switch,relay,and wiring.I was fortunate that my NOS fog lights also came with a Ford wiring harness for them.

. Someone told me it is there. Oh well. I have the factory switch and the harness that goes from the main harness too the fog lights. I want it to look as factory as possable.

I did find the passenger power seat switch harness and pigtail. Now I am searching for a seat track.

I've used a factory fog lamp switch with a new harness and spade clips to plug into the back of the switch.No big deal,and a factory look.I like factroy appearing parts as well.

Oh the hood closes now. With room to spare. Spacers. Nobody can see them and it levels the front out a bit but still has a slight rake to it.

Well I guess I will use the factory stuff and get everything hooked up to look factory for the lights. A relay and some wire. Should be good to go. I could hook it into the park light circut for a trigger. Sweet.
