How do I run the foglights without turnin the headlights on?

its not possible to have fully independent fogs from oem equipment unless you pull all the wiring and redo..

but this is close enough

heres the best way to have your fogs fully independant.

1. take these, your stock fogs(or aftermarket if you have them in place of the stock fogs)

2. now take a tester to the back of it and find out which one of the 2 wires is + and which one is -

3. the buy some of this

5. now. jump the 2 +'s and the 2 -'s of the fogs together with the wire, then run it into the car.

6. take out you stock fog light switch and throw it away

7. get a blank plate off of a subie that didnt have oem fogs.

8. put the toggle switch in the blank plate

9. the wire you brought in the car, ya, plug it into the toggle switch

10. power and ground the toggle switch to an ACC power source(this means it only has power when the car is on.)

11. turn car on

12. do not turn on headlights

13. flip toggle switch

14. enjoy your fully independant fogs.

i hope this helped. not to be that guy but this isnt rocket science. its simple wiring.

and on the subject of lights and wiring, for those who have a second gen rx7 and want your flip up's to be controlled separatly from actually turning the lights on, pull out the flip up button, cut the brown wire, hook it up to a toggle with ground, turn headlights on. if they flip up, turn them off, then flip the switch you put in and turn them back on....vwalla your headlights will now turn on but they wont flip up. for those who dont have a second gen rx7, you wouldnt understand why we would want our headlights on while they werent fliped up lol.

Yes you did. But I'm not tryin to hav a thousand wires runnin everywherre either. But thanks.

all you would need is that roll of red and black wire. and if done right, you shouldnt be able to see any of it. the only thing that wouldnt look stock is the toggle in place of your oem fog button. but you could get a flush mount toggle and then it would all look stock. if you think about it. you just need to run the wire from one fog to the other(tuck it into the bumper support), and then run it through the firewall right behind the brake booster(plenty of stuff along the way to tuck it under, and theres a blank gromit behind the booster). so no, there wont be a thousand wires running everywhere, just 2, and theyll be molded together, so really it would only be 1.

let me ask you something. assuming you have, but in the past, when you wire up a sub and amp, does it look like this

or do you take your time like i do and make it look like mine

its just a question, no need to get flippy about anything.
