What else do I need for fog light install?

I just installed some fog lights on my 2k Maxima GXE. All I have done is take the black inserts out, screwed them on and connect the wires (wiring was there already, taped up). It didn't have any to begin with so I was wondering what else I needed to complete the installation? Thanks

Oh, yeah, the foglights are held in the bumper but they do shake a bit. Tip on that too...

White clips? Mine didn't have anything. Are the clips suppose to hold the fogs so it won't shake? Where can I get the clips? How do I power the fogs on? If the wiring was there already, should there be an off/on switch or button?

where did u buy the lights? If your bought stock ones they should have come with the left stalk near your steering wheel(it replaces your old one), which in addition has a switch to turn the fogs on.

The lamps themselves have to be oriented a particular way so that the tabs on the back snap on to hold them in. So make sure u have the right one on the right side, and facing the right way.

All I bought was the lights from a fellow org member. Where can I buy the new stalk?

I don't have any of the tabs, my car and fog lights didn't come with any. Where can I also buy these?

Thanks
