DIY Ebay fog lights

[tiksman]

I purchased these lights from user jimcat here on Yarisworld. They are a great little aftermarket kit. I was very impressed with the fitment.:thumbup:
There has been a few tutorials but not to easy to follow. The bulbs that came with them are the stock dim look and I installed some hyperwhites.

The only problems I had is there is no instructions and the harness is factory style and all the plugs look factory but there is no place to hook them up. There are 2 wires a large one going to a fuse and to the relay and a small red wire that is 12 volt feed to power the relay. I used the 12 volt outlet (grey wire) for the red wire and a hard line from the battery to the white wire. The way is works is key on and fog switch on you have fogs with or without headlights this is the way I wanted it. I can even have fogs with brights on.
I think the kit is a good quality kit. I got mine on the cheap (cheaper than ebay)
Jimcat is in Hong Kong and he gives super fast shipping He got it to me in Georgia is about 4 days:headbang:

UPDATE!!!! READ Carefully
1) On the front harness where can I find the best grounding bolt? I think there is one close to the pass headlamp on the frame rail.

2) What switched 12V source do I hook the red wire up to??
A --Use the grey wire from the 12 volt outlet. It has a plug on it. It is a little hard to reach arround and get to but not to bad. You will have to cut the plug off on the fog harness there is no plug that connecter they have fits into our cars.

3) The wire that the brown thing is connected to, I am assuming that it goes to the battery correct and if so is it + or -?.
A--Large white wire with brown plug, cut it off and put on a connecter to hoof it strait to the battery.
BROWN plug is the same no place to plug it in on a US Yaris.

4) And Lastly where exatly did you mount the relay???
A---I mounted it with a few zip ties behind the glove box.

Also take the wires out of the ac drain tube groment. You will need to extend the wires some into the engine bay. Mount the fog harness from pass to driver (driver being the very end of the harness).

I drilled a hole and picked up a groment off a old Dodge neon radiator mount. Worked great and I dont have to hunt to make it into the engine bay for future wires.

That's a nice looking kit. I like the adjuster facing downward - not to the back like my eBay version.

What do you mean by 'fried egg' look? They look like standard clear H11 bulbs to me. Most people say fried eggs about yellow/amber lights (which would be nice for a fog). That coating on the tip of the bulb is supposed to be there.

I thought the kit was real nice too. It fit very well. I may be mis quoting the fried egg look but to me with my stock headlamps (b4 the hidled units and brighter bulbs) they looked like yellow dim fried eggs. the fogs are the same they need some hi intensity white h11 lamps.

[rwseattle]

I purchased these too, great set. Easy to install, 2 hours.

[Chiefy707]

Cool isht! I just installed what looks to be basically the same set on my Yaris last night. Where did you route your harness through to get inside the car? I took mine through the parking brake cable hole (had to cut a small groove in the grommet so it still seals even with the wire fed through. Cut off about 18" of the plastic insulator so it could fit but put it back on when the wire was fed through.) I couldn't figure out what the brown connector and white connector plugged into so I just spliced them into the power wire for the 12v outlet. My fogs came with hyperwhite bulbs though. Pix soon.

Now as for those CQ Lighting HID's and JDM Vitz tailights...

Check the brown Plug (larger wire be sure to get power dirrect from the battery or you may overload the wires and a start a fire. the larger is 12v constant dirrect from battery and the smaller wire is 12 volt swiched (got that from the 12v outlet grey wire). I did not want to cut any boots or wires so I drilled a hole in the firewall and I used a rubber washer I had from one of my Dodge neon projects ( it was off the upper radiator support). It fit perfectly and now I do not have to wory about installing new stuff under the hood and into the interior.

[gonzo452001]

I got some ordered from jim cat .How do you get to the power port wires been looking around to see how to take it apart even in the yaris repair manual thanks for any help

[ASHRAF]

thanx for the useful topic

if it was one month before, I might saved 200 or so on my installation
I had mine installed last month

I've just noticed something strange

water, or water vapour (not really sure) is getting into the fogs

anyway ton clean it up and avoid that in the future

[tiksman]

Take out the console. 1 10 mm bolt inder the rear cup holder. Then reach under and unplug the power port.


Also I have had no water issues (been raining here like crazy). But with some aftermarket lens housingd it is a good idea to run a bead of silicone along the edge of the lens and housing. My old Dodge Neon APC tails leaked like crazy inside had to seal them up.
My fogs looked well made and well built and I am picky. I did not buy on ebay because thay wanted too damm much.

it wasnt too easy, because i had to run the wires from the cabin, to the engine bay, to remove the caps u have too take off the wheels and open up the under wheel guards to push it from inside to outside.

yah... the -10 and below wind temps over the last week or so has made outdoor life into 10sec intervals (between my car and wherever I'm going to)

I've been pondering the idea of just going to a self carwash place and using the nice roofed cemented floor.....

[Speedz]

Only thing Im concern about is whether different brand housing will affect the beam pattern cut off...

Dont want one which shoots the beam everywhere but the bitumen... LOL

[sf180th]

The new inserts for the lights look just like factory ones so I dont think the cut-off would be any diffrent from stock.

http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c313/as400g33k/yaris_pics/IMGP2932.jpg

No DIY, I just followed the install instructions by the first poster. Difference in mine is I hooked up 12v switched wire to the park lights. That way park lights on (or headlights on), I can switch on/off fogs. If park lights off (or headlights off), fogs are also off. I also put the switch near the side mirror controls. That way all the light switches are within reach of my right hand.

[rwseattle]

Looks good. Quick question? How did you get the wiring from the engine compartment into the cabin? Did you enter trough the firewall? Did you add additional length to the original wiring? Thanks.

[as400g33k]

How did you get the wiring from the engine compartment into the cabin? Did you enter trough the firewall?

I used the hole that is used by the tube that leads the water out of the aircondtioning system. This hole leads to the engine bay. I cut a small piece out of the rubber to allow the wires through. I placed the wires above the tube so that the water won't drip into the wires. Bear in mind, RHD setup is quite different from LHD so the hole I'm talking about might be in a different place for LHD versions.

Did you add additional length to the original wiring? Thanks.

Yes. The original wiring was insufficient to set up properly. You'd probably need about several meters of wire:

- about 1.5 meters for the thick black 12v wire connecting to the + battery terminal
- about 2 meters for the thick red 12v wire connecting to the fog lights
- about 2 meters for the thick red switched 12v wire (I used the same thick red ones but you can use thinner ones) to reach the park light wires near the headlight assembly.
- about 1 meter of the ribbed tube to cover the wires.

Instead of splicing wires, I used connectors and a crimper to make it safe and secure.

[as400g33k]

oh and thanks jimcat for the fog lights and thanks violin for the mud guards!

[rwseattle]

Great. Thank for the feedback.

[jimcat]

[LoK.]

as400g33k, where did you source the +12V parker light wire? Behind the steering column, behind the glovebox, or behind the headlight itself?

Do your fog lights work in all headlight switch positions (i.e. parkers, low beam, high beam)?

Look at the first post in this thread. Installing the lights and the trim pieces in the bumper is the easiest part (I did have to remove both front wheels one at a time to get to the space however)...

QUESTION:
I have mine installed this way:

http://i63.photobucket.com/albums/h147/snakepitmaiden/FogLights.jpg

I purchased the base for the bulbs but when i removed the bumper i found that the factory harness and plug was already there, followed the cable inside the dash and removed from the plug, connected that cable to a relay and from the relay to a fuse and that to a live line to the battery. The relay is powered by the key switched line and then to a switch. Problem is that the line marked in red in the diagram gets hot. Is this normal or what should i do to prevent this???
Kitt

[rwseattle]

I installed my foglights a while ago but, today I noticed that all the wires feel out of the back of the relay. 4 wires going in to the back of the relay. I've no idea how to put them back together. Anyone? Thx.

[Kitt]

Low in should be the line that comes from your switch, low out should be ground, 30a in, from your battery and 30a out should go to your fogs... This is a standard type of relay, they usually have a diagram printed on its side, if you could post a picture of it i may help you better

http://sfriday.com/VFR800/HOTGRIPS/relay.jpg

[rwseattle]

My PC is not downloading the relay pix. I'm not sure why. I will downloaden tomorrow at work. The relay does not show any wiring diagram. It only says YLE YL-388-S Automotive relay 12V/40A. I got 4 connectors and they're all the same size. I will post pix tomorrow. Thanks for your help.

[Kitt]

It should have something like this...

http://www.rowand.net/Shop/Tech/images/RelayWiringGuide.jpg

post the picture anyways and i'll see what i can do

[rwseattle]

Hopefully this helps.

[Kitt]

ummmm not that much tough... you will need a continuity tester then to find it out. The 2 connectors that have continuity are ones that will go to the switch and to the ground, the other two ones will come from the fuse to the fog lights...
and try to post a bigger picture to see if it helps, focused on the pins of the relay

[redyaris]

Foglights installed and functional...the best mod for me yet!!!

[rwseattle]

I found the correct connection. I did use the continuity tester. I will post pictures of working fog lights soon. I'm installing a front strut bar and will post pictures all together. Thank you for your help.

No look at the first pics you can get to the fogs by just undoing the top of the bumper

I went though the wheel well and front bumper......not very smart but it got the job done and I ended up with a lot of bruises from my arm being squashed in there

Gotcha I guess I was thrown off by your pic on the underside(or back of the bumper). thanks though guys, hopefully I'll get some pics when I finish it up :)

wheel well remove the front pushpins and under the bumper remove the three self taping screws wheel well plastic will fold back giving plenty of room i wired direct to bat with inline fuse works fine just don't for get to turn them off

[Vanderkitten]

There are also 2 open spades in the fusebox I wired mine to (the top one). Same deal, don't forget to turn off!

[Black Yaris]

I found where just just plug the wires in..... how come every one else could not? I got the same ebay kit everyone else did.... well the one from Jimcat...

Vanderkitten.... actully I found a switched in the fusebox, so they turn off with the ign... and I had to do no cutting, or splicing, all I did was pull the pins out off the supplied connectors and insert them into new ones :)... I wil have a pic up in a few... and it works perfect, and damn near looks stock

I want to have HID's as fog lights. Is this possible as of right now?

[aznbabiegrlx0x0]

how were the bulbs that came with the fog lights from jimcat? were they fairly bright? does anyone have a picture of their fog lights at night with the original bulbs ? i wanna know how bright it is since i just ordered a set and i wanna know if i need to replace the bulbs before getting it installed. :] cant wait!

[yrsdrgn]

i have jimcat's fog light kit and haven't switched the bulbs yet so here are some pictures.

Could you give a little more detailed explanation for those of us who aren't electrically inclined? I'm intrigued by your no splicing or cutting method. Is this the fuse box in the car (where the DRL module is removed)? What about the switch? Thanks


--edit, nevermind, I found where you already explained further in another thread. For anyone needing clarification, see thread below.

no, I mean search though the forums for a fog light diy of your product. Different foglights have different colored wires.

Hey everyone,

I got these fog lights a while back, and yesterday the right one went out. I'm thinking it's probably the bulb. Does anyone know what kind of bulb it uses and how easy or hard the replacement of the bulb is? Do I just take off the front bumper and unclip the fogs or something like that? I'd really appreciate it if someone knew what kind of bulbs the foggies use!!

[kassa]

hi there i brought mine from ebay but havent put them in yet from the way u are talking i think i will get mine done professionally thanks guys

[BrianS]

First of all awesome write up. This is the method I used to install my ebay fog lights. Then thanks to advice from CTScott, I able to wire it to turn on my dashboard fog light indicator. :)

Hi guys, read all the posts around for fog lights installation but may my situation is a liitle different and I would like your help.
Installed the fog lights and now I am in the process of wiring installation.
1. The D4 Headlight Switch Assembly Connector under Steering column has no Orange and Yellow wire pins but White Gray Line and Yellow.
2. There is an installed Blue Relay, hope for Fog Lights but just found that is for rear fog lights (https://fuseandrelay.com/toyota/yaris-vitz-2g.html)
3. Fuse FR Fog Blue 15 is installed.
3. My Kit (see the picture) includes only 2 wires Black and Red except from Fuse,Relay and switch.
Could you please tell me how to install in prewired?
