Does wiring exist for fogs on 2004 TL?

- I have a TL 2004 without fog and I would like to know if wiring is there.

- If yes, near the VSA button, it has a blank space to but a button like it, does it the place to add the button to put "On" the fogs on a TL who has its?

First of all, your 2004 TL does have fogs. they are located in the headlight housing.

2nd, if you plan to retrofit the 2003-2005 Accord Sedan fog lights into your lower grilles, you'll have to wire them up.
You can place a butting next the the VSA button and have it wired up

Didn't realize the Canadian models didn't have the fog function. I knew they had DRL, but had always assumed they had the same switch we had to turn those same inner lights on as fogs? Now I know.

It's an Accord sedan part, so any of the Honda parts suppliers such as Bernardi etc...

Fog Wire...

TL 2004: I know that I don't have fogs on my car and I know too that I don't have the wire for it. If I find the wire where goes on TL Type-S, does it have plug on my car to plug it and do you think that its will work like Type-S, what I mean is, still "ON" with low beam and go "OFF" with high beam?

What I'm searching for is to install the original fogs light button in the car and pass the wire from that button thru straight behind the fogs grill and install fogs or leds like Mercedes or Audi etc...

All I have to say is have fun.

You do know that the Type-S TL doesn't have an OEM fog light button beside the VSA, right?

There's no "plug" on our car associated with lower fog lights lol

You can wire a fog light harness to the low beam fuse so they turn on with the low beams (given your switch is turned to the on position), but they won't turn off automatically when you use your high beams, which as you know is illegal.

Just remember to hit the fog light switch to turn off the fog lights when you use your high beams.

For the foglight harness, get the accord fog harness.
