Ok, so after taking apart my entire front end I blew out the LEDs I was going to place in the cornering lamps and realized the old ballasts and relay from my explorer were not compatible in my foglights (in my excitement I didnt even think to check the ballasts, I only ordered new bulbs).

So my question is now I am going to order a completely new set of HIDs (ballast and bulb) for the fog lights because I have factory HIDs in the headlights. Is a relay necessary for the fog lights or can I do a direct drop-in? And I have searched through many of the threads for how to replace the foglights but does anyone have a definitive answer? Because no matter which way I tried the foglights seem to be the hardest part to possibly reach.

Thanks in advance!

 

the set i bought on here came with an optional relay, but i didnt use it. going almost a year strong.
the sponsors here are usually very helpful.

 

HID relay harnesses are nice, but not necessary.

 

I agree with everyone else. You don't need a relay, just plug and play.

 

Ok plug and play sounds much better because it is a royal pain to get to those foglights. Where is the best place to mount the ballast? The ballast I have isnt digital so Im worried about the 'magnetic field'?.. because the maxima has wiring everywhere

 

just bought an 07 maxima se. how can i tell what head lamp assembly i have (xenon or halogen) so i can order the correct hid kit.

 

Hey guys I need help is there a relay for fog lights?
fuses and bulbs are ok.

All the plug and play kits I have purchased come with a relay, on the kits I have I can't remove it

 

I installed mine in the fogs without a relay and no problems yet. However, on every other car Ive installed HIDs in, I always use relays for the headlights.
