where do the wires go through the firewall? im nooooob
where do the wires go through the firewall? im nooooob
Under the dash in the drivers side...take the carpet out a little...and just over the gas pedal there is a like a rubber washer...that's the one I used for the wires.
thanks, but how do i get the wires to there, i have to just reach down like through the carb or something? or do i have to take shit out? i better not... sorry im noob with cars
i ran mine through a little rubber grommet dealy that was on the drivers side way upper right side. its hard to describe, but i had someone stick their finger on it as i pressed it from the inside to make sure it was gonna put the wires under the dash and not hidden somewhere... sorry for the crappy description

Pass the wires from the inside out...then go to the engine bay and ull see them sticking out in the firewall just behind the carb
ah thats a good idea, but i dont know where im going to mount the switch, i think on the left side of the steering wheel cuz theres a spot that doesnt have anything there and i think u can pop them out. thx for the help people
there's where i have mine
and mine, until i make a cutsom switchboard down where the tape holder is(way in the future)

Seriously it was kinda funny at first but now it's kinda annoying. It's not a good thing being "Post Whore" of the year and only being registered since NOV 2002!!!
the easiest way *i think* to pass wires from the engine compartment to the interior is to find a hole (or rubber grommet) on the firewall in the engine compartment and pass some big wire (like for an amp) and just keep feeding it...then look under the driver/passenger side for a wire hanging down!
as far as the switch, i know the stock fog light switch will work for fog lights, i used the one that was in my car...you can probably just jack one from a j/y or something...it is on the left side of the steering column...and it has a yellow/green (someone said it was different colors, mine was yellow) and wire it up! the stock switch has a +, -, and ground...hook your positive wire to the +, the other positive to the -, and ground your switch with the ground terminal. hope that helps...yeah, and use the how-to's.
edit>>> ill show you at the meet if you come...

i've run every single electrical aftermarket item through that firewall hole... it's only an inch around.. and i believe it's behind or under the brake fluid container. I've got fog light switch, neon light switch, amp power cable, windshield washer wiring harness, and a couple other little ground wires running through there... thank god for that hole

hmm, whatever you do.. DO NOT get the remote control foglights they sell at walmart... you WILL break the remote control... the receiver WILL stop working and you also get sucky range with it unless you hook the antena to your stereo antena which THEN screws up FM reception.... just dont do it... after i broke my remote I ripped out the control box and just ran a hard wire with an inline fuse to them, grounded them and ran the wires the bat and an 97cent switch i bought at walmart. save the trouble and go get the hard wire ones... i personaly like the blue lenzed super white ones... they're brighter than my headlights

-----Ground(bare metal on car frame)
lights Firewall
+++Battery++++Fuse(20w)++++I+++++I
Switch
I------Ground
I hope someone understands that...
