Fog lights from a Nissan Tiida to a Nissan Versa! How to......

Here are the steps to install fog lights







































Now the electrical







Run the wire through the grommet, tape the wire to a cut coat hanger and poke it through.




I made a rubber seel out of screen door spline, I put a 18 gauge wire 1 inch long in the center and crazy glued the ends together.







I drilled out the blank plate for these switches one for fog, one for inside LEDS, and the other for outside LED's








Factory look................................

Well if you want to dish out $325.00 go ahead, I paid $25.00 for my parts, and the fog lens are made of glass not plastic.

Because $300 is not at all worth it for factory lights that make no real difference on the road.

Nice install but why not use the pre-existing factory wiring already hanging behind the fog light blanks. I was lucky enough to get the Tiida kit off of Ebay for $125.00. Had to buy the OEM turn-signal stalk to achieve the stock switch location but that wasn't necessary.
