Who is your kit by? k2, ebay(automicstreet) or oem???

have you tried this???

DIY: Install guide for OEM fogs...

looks like that might link the right to the left???

suave2978 · 10-16-2007, 09:37 AM

***portabuddy*** · 10-16-2007, 12:15 PM

My kit is comming on the 20th so i'll let you know then lol...

red with a terminal is positive,
black with a terminal is your common ground so you ground it anywhere in the chassis/metal.
The two spade connectors coming out of the thick black wire goes to your 9006/h11 stock harness.

And if anyone can come up with a better solution (i.e. a male H11 plug) than the stupid spade connectors ghetto-rigged into the stock plug, I will pay them.

suave2978 · 10-16-2007, 06:27 PM

where is the fog stock harness?

I will post picture of th harness tha came with my k2 and tell me If im missing something.

looks like a 9006 plug

caveman74 · 10-16-2007, 06:38 PM

Stock harness only has one plug. I have HID in mine and Im using the stock harness. You will have to branch off of the POS and Neg for your harness

suave2978 · 10-16-2007, 06:52 PM

I am using the harness so that I have it plug to my battery.

can ayone tell me where to plug the 2 spades connector?? is it to the brow 2 pin connector behind the rad tank??

can ayone tell me if i am missing a harness this is my switch harness:

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...Picture074.jpg

Am I suppose to have more then two harness?? I only had a harness to plug the fog and the switch harness.

***portabuddy*** · 10-16-2007, 07:05 PM

damm, im making my own harness... forget that mess...

they go to your h11 plug.

***portabuddy*** · 10-16-2007, 07:22 PM

isnt that the harness that plugs in behind the washer resivour?, then the brown leads plud into the fog lights???

striker_1818 · 10-16-2007, 07:39 PM

oh new picture i see...
foloow collegehillshonda manual.

***Tim*** · 10-16-2007, 07:46 PM

Yah, that's wiring that goes inside the car as I recall. Have you followed the fog installation instructions?

***portabuddy*** · 10-16-2007, 07:56 PM

so the reays go on the inside???, that makes sense, they dont look water tight., and the blue plug attatches to the switch?

suave2978 · 10-16-2007, 09:53 PM

yeah I follow diy install fog but it's not the same wire at all and try to follow the honda instruction it's different also. I went to A place where they install fog and the guy coudn't figure it out. If I plug the two spade thing to the brown single wire behind the reservoir how my fog are gonna work? are they gonna be always on?? If Im able to work the switch thing can you turn the fog whenever you want or they come one when you have you're low beams on???

the guy who install my fog plug them directly with my low beam so whenever I turn my low beam on the fog come on and when I turn my hig beam on the fog still stay on. So it's fog+low beam+high beam at the same time, is tihs gonna drain too much power???

because pretty soon i'll have my retrofit headlight so it would be s2000 low beam+es300 hid fog+ hir headlight. is it bad to have them all on at the same time?

***Tim*** · 10-16-2007, 09:58 PM

Not bad or a drain on the power. It just may well be illegal in the States, were you to visit.

What have you installed already? Which kit did you buy?

caveman74 · 10-16-2007, 10:35 PM

The way I have mine is Stock harness, I just hooked the ballast wires to the wires on the harness. I havn't blown any fuses. It's probably not the greatest way, but there is a relay pulling extra power from somewhere.
