which brings me to my next question - how would i go about wiring this to be used?

the wiring was cut and i have a custom front bar - so i don't have the orginal lights..

i hooked up the indicators no problem at all - standard wiring - but now i have no idea what i'm doing again..

one wire? hook it up to where? and then what? lol - this is killing me..

no dont use it

it goes somewhere else before it gets to the dash as there would normally be a relay for the oem fog lights. if you want fog lights just buy a narva kit with the relay and all and then use the instructions for wiring...

more than likely the relay will be in the engine bay along with all the other relays

test the blue wire for +ve power when you incar switch is on ... if you have power then the black is a common earth and just tap into that

yes but the thing is there is a special switch that is normally on the right of the steering colum that is for the fog lights. if your car has fog lights from the factory then the switch is there, if not then the wire should still be there just no switch, that is the trigger for the relay. and if you dont have factory fog lights, then there wont be a relay either...

ok then Frozenwaffles has given you the info you need.

if your car isnt a S2 that had fog lights - then you will need to setup a relay to supply power to what ever you are lighting up, trigger supplied from the new stalk that you will have to install and wire to the relay .

have fun :P

ok - i'll start from the beginning.. pretend i'm an idiot.. i have one wire - only one.. that's probably the part that's throwing me off the most.. what hooks up to where?

honestly - this stuff normally clicks.. but it doesn't matter how i work this in my head.. i just can't figure it out.. which is why i'm asking i guess.. :|

on that plug down in the engine bay, you have a positive (switched wire) for each of the lights being indicator and fog (the fog is the thikler one due to the increased current) and then a common ground or negative. very simple really. if you dont know this then take your car to an auto electrician...

and just when i thought i had it worked out..

i fell over at the very next step - i've got my relay - set it up - but to no avail..

does anybody know of a wiring diagram for this? i need to get this figured out before my holidays end :|

maybe my issue is with the switch :|

here's an image of the stalks i have - one with the fog switch - the other without..

now - there's that extra plug (presumably to the fog lights switch) - where does that connect?

there should be a mating plug somewhere under the dash if you are using the factory loom and relay position...

it will probably be tied up...not just loose hanging around.

if you arnt using the factory wires and all you want to do use the switch, you will need to use a mutimeter to find out how the switch works and which wires are 'switched' if that makes sense...well it makes sense, more if you can understand...:D

anyway i hope you are going well and good luck...things sound a little shakey but im sure you'll work it all out.

just be careful....

my only Q from here is about that mating plug..

my car didn't come with the fog light switch on the stalk - i bought that from this forum and attached it.. so will the mating plug be there?

i have changed absolutely nothing else.. all factory (except the end plugs of course which were already cut)

    • Seat of the pants assessment of the new intake: The car is way less "doughy" when hitting the loud pedal, especially off idle when stopped or in traffic, I did use a cheapo lazer thermal thingo to measure the temp around where the pod filter got its air, it was between 55 - 60°C, in saying this the car was shut off and not moving, so the OEM intake pipe was not supplying any fresh air to where the pod was when the car was at least moving A weird bonus was induction noise on the throttle in the cabin increased a bit,  I was worried that I was actually going to lose some of that induction noise I love so much, outside though, when I got the daughter to do a WOT drive by pass for me, the induction noise has increased alot when on the throttle, not quite ITB doort, but well up there I'm extremely happy with the results and have been exploring the country roads in the region  As for house mods: 1.New front fence is up and is awesome, it really upgraded how the joint looks from the street, and the added security is nice 2. Electricians have replace some interior lights, and with more lighting in the garage, a few new motion detecting lights out the front above the garage, front room, and at the front door, which I have already found heaps helpful coming and going, also now has fancy pants CCTV all round the house The only hold point for power though is the solar and batteries due to supply issues, although this will happen over the next few weeks 3. I have done a heap of landscaping out the front and I'm almost ready to do a new small retaining wall with some nice blocks to replace the brick and cemented in rocks around the raised garden beds cemented in river stone "was the fashion at the time" the house was built. I currently have a pallet of retaining wall blocks and 2 bulka bags of 20mm blue metal to replace the wood chip that is in the raised garden beds around the house 4. I now have 3 big raised garden beds for out the back to grow some vegetables, about 70cm high, 200cm long and 100cm wide 5. My 2 compost bins are already pretty full with brown, green and kitchen waste from the landscaping I'vedone so far, but they will probably take a few months to break down, so anything else that gets chopped, trimmed, and kitchen waste will just start filling the base of the raised garden beds to about 30cm before I start throwing 40cm of good compost, and stuff, for the vegetables to grow in, I'll need a few ton of compost and soil, but the local supplier can sent me bulka bags of the stuff Basically the logs, wood chips and a few strategically placed rocks for drainage, will give the beds some good organic materials down low to break down over time, and they will hold moisture during the warmer months to save the water in my big arse water tank if we don't get alot of rain So, all in all, the car and house mods are going well, and I'm really enjoying being retired, I sleep in too 0700 and slowly plod around inside until I feel like actually doing anything, and only work in the yard for as long as want, which has actually been alot over the last few weeks,  although when you look at it, it seems that not a huge amount of work has been done,  until I look at the before I started the work pics Happy days and good times indeed 
    • hahaha yeah. Plan is to get side skirts and probably just rear pods. But going to do them one-by-one. I've got a set that I really like from RHDJapen, but that one isn't shipped to AU. So need to find someone who can get it for me
    • Here's an idea, answer the questions I asked you as they are trying to work out WHY the LSD will be binding up in a straight line.
    • You haven't driven many modern cars then have you? Most of them have sfa steering feel with their stupid electric bullshit steering systems.
