Hi everyone. I'm new to this site and was hoping someone can help me with this. I looked all over this site and can't seem to find how to wire my fog lights for a 2005 altima 2.5 s. They are oem and i see how to mount them but was wondering how to wire them? I know there is a wiring harness there but does it lead into the cabin of the car? If so where can i find it? Any help with this would be great. Thanks

Did you purchase the OEM set from the dealer?

Where did you purchase it from? The complete kit should include a new stalk for your steering wheel. The harness should be available on your car already, meaning it should be pre-wired but without the stalk that has the switch. If your set didn't come with installation instructions, then assistance with the new stalk can be found here:

SHIFT_COUPE- Ya i only bought the replacement fog lights and not the stalk. I purchased them from ebay. Stupid me I thought that they needed a toggle switch and thought that the wires went into the cabin so I could wire it myself. So once I hock up thw lights and put the new stalk on then they should work right? Thanks for your help.

Yep, all you need is that stalk man. You should be good to go.

Correct. Or you could just head to your local Radio Shack and buy a relay switch/button for $3 and mount it somewhere on your dash. I used an existing switch plate on my old car to mount the switch for my aftermarket fogs.

Not with a 2.5 without convenience package. Might be different in Canada
