Prewired for fog lights?

NIXmx · 01-16-2007, 02:07 AM

How can you check? I'm interested in buying some if I don't have to rewire my car.

1) Take the cover off the fuse panel box in the frunk. There should be a spot for the foglight relay to plug in.
2) There should be plugs tucked up in your front bumper to plug into the fog lights. I found mine by turning on my headlights, removing the headlight shroud and looking down into the bumper.
3) Last there should be a plug right behind where the fog light switch mounts.

Questions regarding foglight upgrade, switch, new bumper, etc.

bah, I was going to link that, lol. Beat me to it :-p.

Look in the thread linked by bean, it includes pictures and such. From my understanding only very few MR2s aren't wired for them.

I'm betting its the rare ones (mine) that didn't come with any power accessories and are hardtop.

Well, I got jipped. I checked behind my lower dash and nothing. I think I might just buy the fogs and the switch and wire it up myself. Wouldn't be the first time I've plugged something into a factory fusebox.

Wait, there is hope. I removed the metal panel under the steering wheel and found a connector. I'm not sure if it is for the switch but I have included a few pictures. I read the other thread that was linked and just wanted to double check before I spent $275 of lights. They are of under the dash, fuse box, and under headlight. Could someone tell me if they are for the fog lights.

Looks like you are good to go to me

PearlJammzz · 01-17-2007, 02:04 AM

you are all set.

and nope, my car is a factory 92 hardtop w/ no power options. Not even steering. No ABS either for me.

NIXmx · 01-17-2007, 02:11 AM
