Right so I have my Asian model 6gc and I havent encountered any problem mounting my fogs or finding the right relay/multifunctional switch. My only issue is that I don't have a wire down below to attach the fogs. Is there any diagram/way for me to attach some wires to the relay and lead them down myself? I have searched and came up with nothing and I'd much rather avoid just wiring a switch into the dash.

Quick question, I've run the wiring off the battery, through a switch, and to my ballasts/bulbs inside the fogs. I seem to be getting a weird alternation between one of the lights not working at any given time. Sometimes they work perfectly fine though. I've done voltage checks through my wires to the ballast and I'm always getting power. Where is a good place to ground the wires because I'm suspecting that might be the issue.

Running solely off the battery is a bad idea. You want a fuse, relay and switch. -------------------- 1994 Toyota Celica GT-S 5S-FE 190k Miles. Project car 1992 Toyota Celica GT 5S-FE 170k Miles.
