OEM fog light installation

Hello all,

I am looking for the OEM fog light installation instructions, to aid in fabricating brackets and a wiring harness to install EK fog lamps.

Thanks

Thank you. I've actually seen that thread since I did alot of searching before I joined up.

OK, if I can't get the OEM instructions, I have a few questions.

Is there a wiring diagram available? For the switch, and overall harness. I plugged a 92 Accord fog switch into the dash and nothing happened, its the same as a 94-97 fog switch so do the CL's use a different switch than 94-97 Accords? I did also find the mating connector in the engine bay by the fusebox.

Do I need to cut into the bumper to fit the OEM fogs, and do they mount to the fiberglass bar?

Yes you will have to remove the 2 horizontal pieces to fit in the oem location. There actually are mount tabs in the stock bumper that you should be able to use, I plan to use them on my new bumper that I just installed. I had stock oem fogs but had to remove them because they rusted so bad that I couldn't get the burned out bulb out. But here you can see where they used to sit in the outside part of the open gap.
