    EK Civic fog light install help

    I got the fogs and, and they are damn sexy. But I ran into the dilemma of never actually installing fogs before.. haha. I have wiring experience, but I just need a basic outline of what I'm gonna have to do. I have the relay, switch, and both harnesses for the install, anyone else with them wanna help me out? Thanks guys

    And I just realized how many threads I make in appearance lmao, I guess Im just picky =P

    EDIT: Im a dumbass and there was a writeup, sorry guys lol.

    If you look at your fusebox under the dash, you will see some empty prongs that the power wire plugs into. Simply plug the power into that, ground wire the fog lights and they should light up.

    That's how I wired up my universal fog lights the other day. They work great by plugging them into the fuse box. It's kind of a bugger to plug them into the fusebox. I have small hands so it was a little easier. Also the empty plug is at the top of the fusebox. I believe there are two empty spots you can plug stuff into. Thanks for the great thing "HONDA".

    Mine is just connected to the battery clamp. But since my brother did this install, he somehow managed to only allow the fogs to turn on when the parking lights turn on, so you won't forget them.

    Well the wiring issue is solved, but mounting to them to my bumper poses another problem. Theyre so fit for an EK that they have all these weird random things/mounting positions that just the Civic has. Im kinda stumped, which sucks because they would look so good.

    What about using some doublesided tape? I hear it holds up pretty good for small things like that

    Can't you make the brackets yourself? They shouldn't be that complicated.

    Any pics?
