Default Fog Light Question 1996 850

Hi, while changing bulbs that have blown from behind switches etc,
i noticed behind the blanking plates that the connectors were there for other things.

Does this mean i could pick up a front foglight switch and front foglights and (if the wiring is there under the hood) attach said devices??

Cheers

Justin

More or less yes, but you'd probably need the relay as well.

Relay will be need to be put into position 201 under the steering column...There was a very good write up on VPCUK by IIRC Justin but this went in the crash.....
I would PM him there or here as Shestica, he may be able to assist...
Cheers

Simple to do all plug and play, like most thing I have added to my 850. This link may be of some use.
