i have two Right side foglights, and no left side ones, hence why they're both out, no sense driving around with 1 foglight. But now that i look, the foglight that i found brand new in my car after buying it has a 3 pin connector, and the one i got from a junk yard has a 2pin connector...

maybe mine needs a 3pin because it's a JDM ? i dug around for a bit yanking on loose wires, trying to see if i could find the foglight connector, but no luck, i'll have to pull the bumper in the spring and take a look i guess

figured i'd ask incase anyone knows which i should buy for my left side, 2 pin or 3 ?

The JDM/Euro have another 194 bulb inside the fog light which comes on when you turn the headlights on. This is why you have the 3 pin connector.

No worries, if you can't find a JDM foglight, you can buy 2 of the Canadian ones and change the wiring to the 2 pin, eliminating the little marker lights.
