Guest CoolsBlue Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 Hi all, found a thread on this forum that shows you how to do the rear fog conversion with lots of pictures and steps, in the thread this diagram was supplied, but the person was also talking about the original thor diagram (which was incorrect) Now i find it easier to follow this diagram, than the pics they took, can someone confirm that this is the correct diagram i should be using, and i wont end up with 4 fog lights? Really dont like the universal halfords fog units that hang of the rear bumper. cheers, Kev Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pixelfill Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 yup Kev that's the diagram I made to do the conversion. it should have been on the same thread and it was Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest CoolsBlue Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 Thanks Mike, did you make that thread, done all that yourself? very easy to follow once i read it over a few times, also i missed 1 post that ive just seen, spent half hour trying to think it over on my own:D thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homer Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 Ahhhh, so thats what all those relays are in the back of my car! I thought it was fog light related, but this helps. Although there's 3 sets on each light! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although there's 3 sets on each light! 3 relays on each lights? omg seriously check that out homer, also seeming as youve got a project supra, ill just tell you this quickly...for the headlights there is a relay tucked away in the slam panel for for each one, on both sides, so when you put power to the car and test your lights, if any dont work and you cant figure it out, check the conections on the relays, my front fogs were gone and i couldnt figure out why, my dad found them, and told me that the relays can get dirty connections over a period of time take a breath:d Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest CoolsBlue Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 Ahhh yes, used some old wire to check it all over before i went for the real thing, wired up and seems ok, now i just have to wait on my resistors and get some 8amp wire tomrrow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 3 relays on each lights? omg seriously check that out homer Do you honestly think I'm not going to check them? It's one of the more curious wiring oddities with the car so will probably rip the lot out and get it back to stock. Here's a pic of one side Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest CoolsBlue Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 ive got my fog switch wired up, and fused, and it has a 3amp fuse in it, would that be ok or do i need a higher amp to let more power thorugh to the lights? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
