What year is your car? With the lack of the two wires on the top of the connector, it looks like yours was not factory wired for front fog lights.

OK. I don't have wiring diagrams for your area, so what I would do is to measure the voltage on each pin to ground with the headlight switch off and then with it in the parking light mode (one click). You are looking for a wire that measures 12V with the headlight switch off and then goes to 0V with it one click on.

I've had my lights setup for almost 3 years and it's been real good to me thus far. I used the "Clowncar" method that works like a charm using my $14 OEM Toyota relay from Ebay.
I too could'nt get the lighted push button switch to work on my car, so I bought a simple black toggle switch from PepBoys Also, the bulbs that come with these kits can be garbage, the gaskets on mine would'nt even allow the bulbs to fit snugly. I bought German OSRAM brand and the've lasted thus far without replacing them. Fit tight too!

PLEASE HELP!! spent way to much time on this. |

I'm putting in a set of fogs and have the wires run the factory way thru the firewall, I have a 5 speed sedan and wonder where I can connect the wire to illuminate the switch?
This is the green wire from the switch next to the black wire correct? EDIT: The green and white wire [for the automatics] that you tap into for the switch illumination is still wired for the 5spd! The blue wire from the switch goes to pin 3 correct? The last green wire from the switch goes to pin 4 or pin 13 if you want to use fogs with high beams and park lights correct? Black is ground

I got my headlight/foglight kit from Ebay installed everything (including the relay) but the switch that came with the foglight kit was unbelievably low quality. I bought another switch off of ebay and still waiting for it. Anyways, When i opened the D4 connector on the headlight stalk, the yellow wire that we are supposed to cut-off and connect two wires from the switch does not lead to anything apart from supply ground to the relay right? I dont know why we split that wire and connect the other wires from the switch to the D4 yellow wire that is open on the stalk side. Can you please draw a diagram as how the switch (with led light) works related to the yellow wire (no 3 i assume?). All i know it that the switch bridges the ground to the relay. Thanks!

Pin 3 and 4 go to nothing on the stalk (i.e. no pin on the stalk side). If you had an OEM stalk with the fog switch on it then it would those two pins and the fog switch would simply bridge them. Pin 3 goes to the negative side of the fog light relay and pin 4 is a headlight low beam switched ground.
Hopefully the ebay switch that you purchased is a four pin, not three pin illuminated switch, since the switching and illumination need to be separated.

This is what I got from Ebay: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...=STRK:MEWNX:IT It is four pin (I hope it is the right kind) . so from what I understand is that we switch pin #3 to the ground (which powers the foglights) and pin #4 powers the LED white they have a common ground? Thanks!

The LED needs to be connected to the illumination circuit. If you connect it to the fog light switching circuit, the LED will remain on all the time (even when the ignition is off). If you look at the attached document, which I recently put together for the MI fog light kit, it shows where to connect the LED to the connector for the lighting for the AT shift lever (the feed is present on both AT and MT cars). The green wire is + and the white is -. By using this feed for the LED, it will only light when the headlight switch is on and will dim with the other interior lights when you adjust the dimmer rheostat.
