Installing Stock Fogs

Alright, my car came stock without the fog lights and I was wondering if its possible to buy those same fogs somewhere online and if its possible to wire them and put a switch in the car without having wires exposed and running everywhere. Thanks!

or you could get a set of PIAA's for the same money... They look better and shine brighter! The stock upgrade setup u buy from nissan will also come w/ a new turn signal switch that has the fog light on/off controls. I have a GXE w/ the nissan fog upgrade. But if I would have waited, I would have purchased the PIAA set.

Igor, are you saying that PIAA has a set that fit the stock Max 2k fog holes? If so, do you have a link?

No Im not sure if they have a set that will fit or not. But maybe they do??? If i would get the PIAA fogs, i would mount them in the mini-grille between the 2 stock fog light holes.

My Max was the same way and I just installed the fogs from Nissan this morning. One of the easiest installs I've ever done. Took about an hour but that was painstakingly slow to make sure everything went right the first time. Very simple and the instructions are good.
