fog loghts

[chris1804]

i have a vectra c club i wanna fit some front fogs, the wiring is there behind the bumper, if i get a new switch with fog light button on would it work ? if not ill wire them up to the battery and relay and put a switch above alarm switch, my question is will sri fog surrounds fit a normal bumper???

IIRC, they need a tech2 session to connect them up to the canbus network.

Installed fogs on mine on Friday. Non were on it before hand.

The fog light surrounds have to match the bumper you have. And the fog lights have to match the surrounds that you have. So if you dont have an SRi Bumper, the surrounds wont fit.

As for switch, you need a new headlight switch for your dash, my old one only had a button for rear fog lights, you need one with a front fog button. Easyest way to get these out of the dash is to push in the knob for Off/Side/Dipped and turn it clockwise until you feel the knob hold itself inplace whilst pushed in, then pull and the switch unit will come out of the dash.

As for making them work, Im still trying to get mine to turn on mate. But from what Iv been reading, I need somone with Tech2 gear to make some changes to make the Canbus network recognise that there are now fog lights on the car. I was going to get it looked at today, but the place I was going was closed, but I will report back as soon as thats done.
