Here's a quick guide on how to rewire your fog lamps to stay on with high beams in a 5th Gen -Remove steering colum plastics to access the white connector that plugs into the combonation switch (turn single and lighswitch stalk) -Cut the tape off the harness and locate the green wire in pin 10, that's the ground for the fog lamps. And you'll also need to locate either the black red OR the black wire for a ground. Don't mix that up with the red black wire -Strip back the black or the black red wire. -Cut the green wire and connect the vehicle side to the ground wire. The vehicle side not connector side -Solder and tape your connection, plug it back in and your done. Test then re assemble

I'm ready to toss my fog light out for the black fog light delete. even with headlight film they crack, I'm tired of replacing them... this latest set cracked within 3 months.

 

i always heard about them cracking, but never had that issue surprisingly with bad roads around here. drove 17 years with them lol. now the bulbs on the other hand maybe went thru 10 pairs

 

I;ve had my 02 since December of 2012 and I've replaced them 3 times..

 

thats wild, any idea whats causing it? kinda like rocks on a windshield deal?

where the replacements OEM? maybe aftermarkets have weak/cheap glass too , ya never know

 

im in the same boat. only the left side.

 

I have owned mine since 09 and also have replaced them at least three times. It looks like my favorite brand stopped making them, Depo.

And that protective film was useless for me too.

 

same here, protective film was useless and it even started looking a little white...

 

the film I used was the Lamin-X stuff which was completely useless.

 

I used the 3M stuff
