Hope this info helps the people that might find this info useful. My JDM fogs work just like the US fogs. They only come on with the low beams on. I can't turn them on or off during parking lights or high beams on. I can turn the fogs on or off only when I have my low beams on.
As for some of you that had questions about the modifications I did. The only modification I performed was on the US fog exterior harness. I stripped the 2 wires on each side and crimped a connector on each wire. Then I stripped and added some more wire to the grounding wire.
Then the rest of the install I just followed the PDF file that is given by the online sites on how to install the US fogs. The only thing JDM I had was the fog lights and brackets. The rest of the equipment I had was from the US fog light kit. If any of you guys need to know the actual part numbers I used, then post in here and I will respond with the US equipment and part numbers that I used to make my JDM fogs work. Hope this helps some people.
What were the exact part number you used DocBom? Because My problem is that I have the jdm foglights, switch, but no harnesses or relays and I just want my foglights to work as they're supposed to with the option of just pushing a button to turn them on without the low beams. How could I go about that and would I need? I don't feel like shelling out another $100 for the external and internal harnesses and relay.
BTW I got my genuine Type-S foglights for $130 incl shipping just without those other components

1) You dug up a thread that has been dead since 2001.
2) You got genuinely ripped off.

If you don't want to spend atleast $100 on the OEM parts, (which they will be more than that), and you want them to work by just flipping a switch on or off, your going to have to make your own wiring harness which is pretty simple really.
You will need to go to your local parts store and get a switch, wiring, fuse and relay.
Best of luck to ya.

^ he already said he has a switch. If he doesn't have the wiring pigtail, he can just solder the points and run it into the harness.
OP, don't listen to the misinformation this guy is giving you. Keep everything you have. All you need is a harness, 12v relay and fuse. Don't settle for a non-oem switch.
Honda4Life, how come you are popping into this forum? We all know how you feel about Preludepower.com and SoCalprelude.com
*** edit...Every attempt you will make to troll or flame me will get reported to mods. Stop following me in all my posts flaming me.

He posted first, so technically you followed him. You're actually hijacking an antique thread to troll his post. Something you warned him against doing.
Comical.

I would get a different switch because using the OEM one you will need the OEM wiring harness for it to work correctly which is going to be over $100.00 which the guy asking the question doesn't want to spend. Doing it the way I suggested will cost about $15.00.
As for misinformation, should I post links to all the BS you have thrown out there which is wrong when it comes to working on cars?
You sir followed me here and are doing exactly what you accused me of. Kinda funny really. Grow up already and get a life.

He's a whiny twit that has authority issues and a history of being an abusive mod who edited people's posts to suit his own needs. It's surprising that he doesn't have a problem here [yet].
And the guy didn't get ripped off, $130 for just the foglight housings themselves is a good deal.
Another option is to get a set of replica foglights and use the wiring and switch from that, just need some slight modification to work with the pre-run on the car. Then it's just the simple matter of selling the housings for a few bucks.
Oh and it's better to bump an old thread with relevant information that may be useful than starting a new thread to the likes of complaints about it being a new thread.

Again I will ask, didn't someone do that to me actually 1st? Didn't that person delete most of a thread that had been on a forum before they were even a member of that site?
Seriously get over yourselves already. It's really funny how people helped a scammer to only scam yet again yet they ignore it and keep blaming me for THEIR mistakes.

The ends don't justify the means, if that happened to you first it should have taught you the vices to avoid to not become a corrupt mod.
Yes the bit with the scammer happened, except it is widely known and accepted as a mistake by all the mods and a shameful part of the history. You are by no means innocent so your sig is misleading if you oust the fallacies of some yet hide your own. Kind of ironic, in a way, since you're guilty of the very same thing aren't you.

I don't know about that, I haven't seen him do anything here. I do know that S(issy)-LudeDan(ielle) is a card carrying pink panzy puff deluxe though, who doesn't know the difference between "lead" and "follow." He's also a whiney little lapdog who loves to use the forum rape whistle. One last thing I know about him is; if he PMs me again with his "hi I've reported you because I'm a whinely little c*#&s$%k@r" bull****, or tries to tell me the sorded details of their infantile lovers spat again, I'll eunuchate him with a rusty spoon.
There ya go Danni, something to really get your cardigan in a twist over.

$130 for non-functioning fog lights isn't that good of a deal when just-as-good replicas are out there for much less. You know all about the replicas. To buy those harnesses, and relays is going to cost him probably about as much as the lights did + shipping. By the end of all that he could have bought a brand new set of genuine JDM fogs and not had the hassle of tracking down parts to make them work.

Yup I was corrupt and no one else is or was. Your so right there guy. Why didn't anyone else learn anything? Why is it always what I did but when anyone else is called out it is swept under the rug?

I like how you all have pulled drama from another forum to here only to try and make yourselves feel better about the mistakes you made and to try and make yourselves look better. Give it up already.
Mistake that shouldn't have happened if rules were followed wouldn't you agree? They allowed it to happen to say the least by not following the rules, not me.
How am I guilty of being a scammer? Please let me know. My old account on PP.com still has like the highest showing all POSITIVE iTrader on the site. At the time I left the site I was the #3 person of top donar's to the site. Yup, I'm a horrible person. Look at yourselves already and stop projecting yourselves onto me.
Most of you over there have went around spreading so many lies you now believe them yourself. So really, why don't you ALL give it up already?
