    Default Installing fog lights.. VX Lumina

    Hey guys,

    Just recently sold my VR and got my VX Lumina.. and was considering installing some fog lights. The dash has the fog light button however I am not sure if the car has fog light wiring or not.. any ideas as to where I can look for this wiring?

    Next question is.. I hear people with VX's can just push out the 'filler' where foggies are meant to go in the front bar however mine has a HBD body kit and I have tried to push it out but it all seems to be one piece (see pic attached), perhaps there different? If this is the case do I have to buy a whole new front bar or is there a way around getting them to fit?

    can only help with the wiring, just pop your head under the fron t bar and there should be a harness with a water proof 2 pin plug, cliped to the chassie. if you cant see them either side then you dont have the factory set up and you have a bigger job on your hands.

    those bumpers you will need to cut it out, its a single piece of moulded plastic. And yes if you dont have the wiring its a big job.
    I was going to install foggies but now with the laws you can only use them in adverse weather. not for show anymore

    As far as i know you cant buy genuine fog lights for this bar, you need the s/ss bar for those and the car should have the wiring there for the lights... i have the exact same car and it has the wiring there .
    If you really want them and dont feel like buying a new bar check these out:

    ^^^++ to MR__VX with the added info that the harness is duplicated ie is present on both outer sides of the sub/k frame at the front. Will/should be taped/clipped back there.

    should be no different to running wires for spotlights, just trying to conceal wiring (if you're a finnicky kinda person) that proves the hard part

    Had a bit of a look earlier for the wiring but couldn't find it, will have another look in the morning with a bit more lighting. The ebay fog lights.. what are they like to install? As far as fitting them to the bar?

    I've never installed them, i was just considering buying them, but it looks like they would just plug straight into the wires on the harness if you can find them
