its not illegal to have it on right? cause its like your 3rd brake light is on and some people might get confuse

I had a Car Stereo shop install this set-up, as they were best familiar with the wiring processes.

I do know they set it up to have a fuse break prior to clamping onto the brake line to insure if anything went wrong it would shut down at the fuse level and not effect the rest of the vehicle.

I took the DIY of the fog lamp install from SIMOTA1 to this shop.

I ordered the relay from Flashing Brake Light .com and went to their motorcycle site, there is a link from the main page. cost was $29.00 for the relay.

So here we go I am very happy.

If you want more specifics of the install contact this shop called " AudioMaster " @ 512-326-9077....speak with the owner. They did a fantastic job, I truly appreciated the work they did.

The green wire is the brake light....

Good luck

You could try installing a resistor in series to lower the light output.

U should wire it up so it lights on @ 7500RPM!

As regular fog light that's on all the time it looks strange, fog lights should be on the front of the car :tup:

Fog lights are as important up front as they are in the rear.

how is it originally hocked up (OEM)?

Do they have there own switch or button somewhere?

^ i guess we need a Japanese or a EURO Service manual.

im so glad i live in canada and my car already have this light. I told the dealership that the american 370z cars arent getting the light and they looked at me as if i had 2 heads.

Snakes709,

The next time you are at the dealer would you see if the actual fog light switch is available. Many people are using a heated seat switch instead because it is not available here. Does your fog light switch go in between the heated seat switches? Thanks.

:icon17: That bad, huh? I wish mine had it already installed, too.....I know I had mine hooked up the quick and easy way.....not the right way, I'm sure.

Snakes709 08-30-2009 04:32 PM

i never botherd to look where it was until today...never got out of the car to see if its on but im assuming it comes on when i flick the fog lights on that is on the same control lever on the wheel as DRL/Parking Lights, Hi and Low beam lights. But yea ill ask the dealership if u can buy it.
