tC's are already pre-wired for fogs on the driver side you should see when bumper is off

when i got ebay fogs(in grill) the harness that came with it did not fit into the car's connection. I had to shave down part of the fog harness to make it fit. It worked but they were not properly aligned(and it was impossible to get them aligned) and one burnt out in a month. I ended up taking them off.

Thanks 06sciontcnda.. Still can't figure out how the wire went thru the insde of his car.. And that power source ryt below the left head light inside the bumper was not compatible with the harness.. It ddnt come with an adapter for it.. But I'm gonna try to buy new sets of fuse tomorrow and see if I can get it t work.. I hope that's the problem.. Crossing my fingers!!!!!!

What's that? Is that a type of light bulb? Or some kind of wiring?

Nokya Yellow Bulbs:

Or:
http://shop.ebay.com/i.html?_nkw=yel...286.m270.l1313

this is the film people do on stock bulbs both work wonders and will be cheaper than buying a HID kit
