No, been working on mine the last couple of days. I have no idea where the wiring starts on the other end of things, but it's not "hot" at all. I tapped into the wiring just before the firewall grommet you see in my pic (still utilizing the harness plug down below). Then wired to the tail lamp.

I'm still working on it, as I haven't decided my final solution. The whole idea of getting this fog lamp (for me) was to aid in backing up, as I'm not used to the blind spots the rear pillars give me. I also want it to flash when in reverse. I've hooked it up to the tail light, but it is pretty bright. So I've decided against that for now, as to not piss off any other drivers or cops. As of now, I simply have it tapped into the reverse lights. I'll do the flasher when in reverse, and I think I will run a switch to manually turn it off and on with the tail lights.

Oh, forgot to add...if you have the harness on your Z, then the two wires in this bundle that you need is the orange wire (+) and largest black wire (-).
