wiring for aftermarket foglights
i have installed the blazer fog lights on my camaro. I have the wires from the lights to teh switched hooked up, where do i plug the power wire into? On the instructions it says to either do it to the + terminal on theh battery or to the fuse box. The line already has a fuse on it, how do i hook it up to the fuse box? Or do i splice it into the power wire under the dash, if so which power wire? I want it so it is an accessory so its not always on.
Did your foglights come w/ a switch to mount inside of the car?
If so there should be 3 prongs in the back of it.
One for the lights/one for ground/one for power.
BTW no need for connection to the fuse box run it straight to the battery.I ran it along the back firewall down to the starter.(+)

Get a foglight switch and put it in in your dash were the switch should be behind that is a connector for the fog light switch i hooked mine up so that the switch lights up and fog lights turn on. How i hooked it up i dont remeber i know the POS goes to the battary and i think i made it so the ground is in the switch and when you turn it on the switch will complete the ground.

on my 91 RS i know there was a connector that was wired in but i dont know where the wires led to. I found the wire on the connector that made it so when i had my head lights on it would light up. then i just spliced the fog light wire in so it would run off the switch. I know my POS wire is hooked to the battary so i assume i made it so the switch would make a ground. I did this a few years ago so i cant remeber how i did it but i think what i descrbed is pretty much correct
