wow...I was doing my fogs, and I had to make my own screw to ground near the wiper fluid. later i was trying to figure out what is wrong, and i put a tester in the female 6 pin connector and there was a small spark. After that I am not getting any power to my fog light switch, and i was getting power before. I checked the wiring and the red/white wire, has power going from the white 20 pin connector, to the relay harness, and the other 3 connectors dont have any power. is this the relay that is the problem? I think i need a new one. im not getting any power anywhere after the relay. thanks....oh..i redid my ground , and grounded it to the other spot where there is two wires already grounded next to the wiper fluid tank...(thanks gui)!

Just installed OEM fogs this past weekend on my 08 4dr Si. I have the kit with the stalk switch and compared to the initial post with the coupe install- much easier!! Just plug and play.

Toughest part was reinstalling/aligning bumper back on-just need a buddy.

You don't need to take bumper off to align fogs on FA5 either

To avoid the aggravation, I would reccomend to just go factory

good luck, but you really dont need it, I did fine without it and just drilled the hole after the lights were in.
