i tried tooking for a wiring diagram for your civic's fogs, but i had no luck.

i assume black is ground, and the reds are for the switch and the illumination of the switch.

Thanks for the try

. I guess if I was to do this mod then it would be somewhere deeper on the wiring harness.

ok so I attempted to wire in the switch using the power from the cruise switch. everything works just fine. But Now my problem is that I cant remember how to hook up the piaa x1100 wires. I know that the white/red wires are power and black/brown is ground, but I hooked that up to my switch, but wont work. I tried looking for the manual online with no luck either. so untill piaa gets back to me I'm not sure if I can go any further...

yeah. The piaa guys emailed me the diagram. I'm going to have to wait until thursday to try it again. It looks like there's some tweaking to what is attached to the switch. I'll you guys posted.

oh and cpvdh, I got the switch for about 15.95 + shipping. I dont know if its too much or not.

I have a 02 MDX on which i want the foglights to be on as indicated in the diagram above. After accessing the back of my lights switch, i saw that there are a bunch of wires there and that there is no red/black wire. Please let me know where i can get a wiring diagram for that or help me get whatever info i need to make it work. Thanks
