Default Help How T0: install OEM JDM fog lights into EG?

Hey guyz,

I got JDM OEM fog lights for my 92 Civic Dx, all the wiring is there and stuff and installing the fogs on the bumper isn't what is concerning me, yet i have no idea how to wire'em to my car.

I found a DIY from a guy who did his with Lexus lens but his wiring pictues arent great and his cables arent the same as mine. If anyone knows how to do it , has a DIY or could point me towards someone who could do it for cheap, let me know ASAP

your first step should be to lay everything out on the floor, and connect all the harnesses/swtiches that you got with your purchase.

from what it looks like on the auction page, there are the lights, then a harness that would go from the lights to the cabin, then a harness that goes from the engine bay harness to A) power and ground, B) some other plugs under the dash (probably for lighting the switches when the headlights are on) and C) the switches themselves.

now you should just have to find either a fuse in the under-dash fuseblock for foglights, or a harness plug that will work for them.

Use female connectors and crimp them onto your 12v and switched source wires. Connect the 12v wire to Option B+. Connect the switched source wire to Option ACC or Option IG2. Ground it to any bolt under the dash.

Also this should help you really well Honda-Tech.com: FAQ : Depo Foglight Installation
