Default Install LED fog light for AP2

I have question about what 12V power source from the fuse box in the engine compartment I could use when the car is turned on if I want to install LED fog lights on my AP2?

I've not seen what I'd consider fog lights for the AP2. Ebay LED sets for sure, but not real fog lights.

Are there any?

Pro Import Tuners selling them for $100 a set.
I am using LED strips to make my own fog lights.

I know S2000 has DRLs, but I am trying to install fog lights on my bumper. Thanks

Didn't realize you had fog in Texas!

Make sure to use yellow LEDs if you want fog lights---white or bluish white light is useless In the fog.

The eBay ones are called fog lights by some folks but they're actually DRLs mounted where fog lights would typically be mounted.

Red wire going to the spare slot in the underdash fuse box is the one you want to use. I put my lights on a switch so I can turn them off if I want.



Small rocker switch mounted in dash, optional
