Oscar came over and lent a hand, working on installing the new switch while I swore at the lower grille... and swore... and swore. You get the picture. Once I realized how ridiculously easy it is to swap them... BAM. Done.

And now I need to get a hold of Stockfish tomorrow for a damn relay. I tried pulling the A/C relay, same thing as the fog relay... bugger wouldn't move. So I left it. And it figures Crappy doesn't carry the relay <_<

I'll take pics once I get the relay in and car washed, not like every ZX3/5 on the planet hasn't seen that front end yet :P
What fogs did you put in? OEM?
Yeah, I got SL8RZZX3's old factory lower grille from his ZX3. All sedans have the wiring harnesses wired up, just need the other headlight switch (installed now) and to connect the harnesses to the bulbs (done). You also need the damn foglight relay, which ISN'T installed even if you didn't order the fogs. Kinda makes sense :P

Does anyone have the damn Fog DRL How-to PDFed or anything? I missed that one before and OFOC.ca's offline. :(
Hey Adam pull your DRL relay and put it in the fog light relay spot for now......

what i did with mine was i took the relay apart (the white cover off the relay), then you have a copper coil and switch.

i took the coil out, then you have just the bottom with the 3 prongs. I kept the two that were side by side and riped out the top one.

Now you have two prongs attached to the base, get a piece of wire and sawder the two prongs to either end, let cool then put the white cover back and insert to the fuse box.

AND bam foglight mod and no DRLs

I'll go take pics to clarify
Left relay is stock Right is fog light Modded

I hope this helps ;)
Gord, you are the MAN. And the grille looks sick. Thanks mang.

Tony too for the headlight switch, and as before Oscah for hookin' it up for me.

Now I just gotta get off my ass later today and do that :P
can you do a quick write-up for me?
