    Default Fitting Fogs ??

    Hi guys , a little help needed here ... I have a vectra 1.8 energy '04 , question is I want to fit fogs , I,ve got a pair off an sxi or elegance or something like that but the loom which is present does not fit , the 2 pin connectors that are at the fog position dont mate up with the fog 2 pin. also would a OE light switch with front fog work as I believe the 'energy' model had an optional fog upgrade although mine didn't get it , so long story Iknow but are the two plugs at either side for the fogs ? or is this a loom for something else ??
    ps not looked behind light switch yet to see whats there
    sorry for the novel lol

    To my knowledge know one has fitted fogs to a none fog car using factory looms and switches as it can't be done without spending lots of cash. I think it has to do with the fact that he ecu is programed differently on fog and none fog cars. However you can fit fogs using aftermarket fog kits and your own switch. There is a how 2 on it.
    Take a look here.
