Alright, a little late but here they are. Dont judge the color of the fogs by the color of the headlights, they are Silverstars (Im to broke to do a retro and havent found an HID kit I like)

DRLs w/ fogs no flash

OK - I'm stumpted - I have the same harness as the one shown in the large pics in this thread - just 1 red/white stripe wire.
I connected it to a hot lead (ignition on) so I can run the fogs as drl's once I pull the #37 fuse. Ive also installed JDM projector lights....
Problem is the forgs worked at first - now nothing!!!
I checked the fuses and they're OK I have power at the red/white wire but the relay doesn't seem to be getting any...Bad switch???, bad relay???
or another fuse I dont know about???

With out knowing all the elements of the equation its hard to say.

Unhappy

OK - I'm having a bad time of this... I have everything installed....nothing works.
I got the K2 kit and it has only one red/white wire to get power and the blue 6 pin connector. I had it all hooked up and the relay was ckicking so I knew I was getting power but the lights wouldn't work. I removed the connector at the bumper and cleaned out the grease...was getting power to the lights - put it all back together, and now nothing - not even a click in the relay.
I checked the fuse and its OK ----I have power in the red/white lead....what else could be wrong????????????????

Also, have you tried it with the lights on, not just with DRLs.

Yeah....and yeah.....
Saturday, I'm going to tear the whole thing down again and if I can't find the culprit, I'm going to wire in a Hella harness direct to the battery.
I don't need a dash indicator and all the other extra crap, but I figured since it was a lease-mobile I would try to keep it as OEM as possible....Just could not fathom plunking down $225 for a set of fogs!
