the other thing...... no wires have to be run through firewall correct?
The brown connector with blue wire and red tracer is taped up behind the washer bottle correct?

Yeah, mine only had two wires for that also, the two pin (
make sure you clean the grease out very well) and a ground, which I grounded right in the front near the radiator.

I got the same kit as shown by Imthevoiceofgod, and everything is connected EXCEPT the end of the wire, which said it should have a cap but if not to connect to the relay box (same as OEM). So i dont think mine came with a cap and when i goto connect it to the relay box, i dont see anything to connect it to. The fogs arent turning on and im assuming its because the "cap" end isnt connected. Any help would be appreciated.

EDIT: PROBLEM SOLVED !!!
