vg fog light plugs

I have aftermarket foglights and looking to remove the previous wiring job and go with the factory wiring harness. Mine didn't come equipped with factory fogs but all the wirings there in the factory harness. Could anyone post a pick of what the factory foglight connector looks like from the foglight side or let me know if there are other connectors on the car that are the same that i could cut off a scrap car so i can make my aftermarket fogs plug and play with the factory wiring. Thanks. If im not mistaken it's a female connector on the foglight side?

Your car should be pre-wired for oem fogs.check around to see if there taped up under the bumper. Also check to see if you have the fog light button inside the car or plug.if you don't see a button remove the blank square on the dash to see if there's a plug connector for fog light button behind there.

You can get the connectors from the turn signal lamps, so that you don't have to find and ruin a set of fog lights. I'm sure they can be found on all sorts of models from the same period.

Edit: Forgot that they are keyed. So you will have to shave some plastic from the connector. This is why it's a good idea to take pictures.

Wrap the wires with loom or some equivalent. I used scrap insulation from a cable because I didn't have any small diameter loom at the time. I don't like how it looks (doesn't look factory), but it does the job.

Great. Good to know they're the same as the corner lamps. I actually have an extra set of stock corners with harness i can use the connectors from. Thanks for that info and the pics. Hectic. Much appreciated

Not the corners, the turn signals, on the front bumper.
