You don't. The wire that goes through the firewall is already on the car, they all come with it.

okay question. to install HIDs i don't know where this wires are supposed to go. i don't remember seeing these two wires when installed HIDs for my low beams. can someone help me out? they run all the way to connection part that you plug into the stock headlight wiring harness.

Wrong thread for this, but you're right. Those go into the stock headlight harnesses (although you should spend an extra $10 to get the extra harness so you don't fry your OEM ones)... you're supposed to have a plug, but apparently you didn't get one? I would send it back... most people don't just have those plugs laying around lol

thanks for the link. ill be ordering them.

but even if i didnt what are the chances of them frying? i mean OEM fogs are 55w right? i put in 35w hids so wouldn't it be safer

When you initially turn them on, they're at a higher wattage I believe, and do it enough times and you can blow the OEM harness. Better safe then sorry. And actually I think the only reason that one wasn't $10 was because there was only one. You'll want to check when you buy

that red wire needs to plug into the WHITE center large plug not the BLUE one that you are picturing...

see this thread for most of the info you will need....
DIY: Sedan Ebay (K2) Foglight Install With Pics

or this thread
DIY: Install guide for OEM fogs...

here are some pics from those threads

the plugs


it's the CENTER one you want

look at where it must be plugged in (look at the colours)




did you plug this plug in (I think your harness came with it)




ALSO you need to add a 25A or a 30A mini FUSE in SLOT #6

they just plug into the stock harness but that should be a plug not just those pins...... also you know that black rubber thing that all the wires run through just take it off (cut it off) it's useless I always take then off when ever I install HID kits, you dont have to sent the whole set back just see if they can send you the right harness with the right plugs




if it is for the fog lights then you dont even need to use that jumper harness you can just plug the foglight harness right into the ballast.
