I ordered mine from the Z store and it took about 3 days to receive the order.

ddvette, I don't think I can help answer these questions, but there are a number of Fog Light DIY threads in the DIY section. I know, because I'm about to order one and hook it up myself. I don't know if you've already read these, but here are a few of the approaches some owners took...

DIY: of complete FOG LAMP install

If you've already seen these, then sorry for posting redundantly in your thread. Just want to help. Good luck, buddy!

I saw that awhile back (actually commented in the thread). I think it's a bad idea to hook it to the license plate light. Mostly because it's on anytime you have your lights on, which can be quite annoying when the weather is not bad.
You're better off getting the harness from the Zstore and using it only when it's needed.
