Then discovered the confusion for what the wiring is for the switch to the OE connector. Hacked the harness for only what was needed for those.
#AFTERMARKET FOG LIGHT KIT INSTALL#
I followed the info from OP Wizardhat and whats shown in the factory install instructions. I bought the set of cheap WinJets that comes with the harness and switch. Wiuth the Winjet kit, some connectors and shrink tubing, I have about $60 in this. No need to buy and install a different light stalk on the column. Which is fine with me and I live in a state where annual "safety" inspections check for this sort of thing. You get the proper function of the fogs being only on during low beam headlights. So the idea is you can use a set of fog lights with a dash switch and take advantage of the cars built in wiring, fuses, and relay. I just wanted to add a piece of useful info in case anyone else is going down this path. It has all the pictures that illustrate what I did as well as step by step instructions. Here is a link to the OEM fog light install directions from Scion. At this point in time one just needs one kit from Winjet or Spyder (their switch setup is more OEM styled than Winjet and use the parts for the above. I keep the dimmer at halfway and everything is even. Only exception is that the switch lights inversely to the dimmer control. Dash inidicator works, fogs turn off automatically when high beams come on, fog lights can be turned on and off at will. The Winjet switch goes in where the blank is next to the dimmer wheel. There are four wires, Yellow black went to the switch ground, White was power to the switch, and the other two (I dont remember their colors, sorry) connected to the relay and to the switch light. To hook up the switch I opened up the lower dash and cut off the factory connector that the OEM kit uses and cut off the wires from the Winjet switch leaving enough to splice the switch to the OEM wiring. One is basically closing an open circuit which is what the OEM Kit does. Only need about about a foot for the power and maybe two feet for the ground. Used a T-dap slice to connect the power to the lights each side and then ran the ground to the ground locations on each side of the chassis. There is a plug in an unused slot on one side with the corresponding opposite wire being the fog power supply already to go. Power for the fogs is on the turn signal connector which is above each parking light and hard to remove from its clips without the bumper removed. I picked up a Winjet kit just for the switch and chopped up a harness from Didode Dynamics for the power/ground connection between the fog lights and the car wiring.
#AFTERMARKET FOG LIGHT KIT HOW TO#
Instead I did some research on the factory fogs and learned how to use the factory wiring already in the car complete with relay. I did not like the Nigel harness at all or the switch and I did not use them. clear lens options.Bought my foglights from Nigel JDM parts before the complete kits came out from Winjet and Sypder with switches that fit OEM style.
