being an exec your car wont have the wiring to run it, meaning you will have to wire it all yourself.

do you have a basic skill and common sence, IF answered YES . you wont have a issue.. buy yourself a cheap test light to use checking for power //earths
.. MOST kits come with every thing needed,, switch/ relay /wire/etc.. NOW the issue are they going too be true fog lights (yellow) if not there are clear lens there called driving lights,, IF that's the case check with your road authourity/police regarding use off them. Some states its illegal to use them in certain conditions. TRUE FOG lights are wired in too your low beam headlights, as too much light HIGH BEAM isn't want you want when driving in fog ... HENCE why there yellow... TAKE your time its pretty simple really ,, and your learning a new skill

Just because its an executive doesnt mean it wont have wiring ... you'd be surprised the number that do.

Quickest way to check is the fusebox under the bonnet - have a look at the empty relay spot "Fog Light". If you can see the little silver pins in that empty space then your in luck, if its just empty plastic holes then your out of luck.

You can also poke around under the front bumper bar where the foggies would go and look for the plugs, they will be taped to other wiring looms and might be hard to spot.

I'm not saying you WILL have it, I'm saying there is a chance you will have it. I have seen many VZ Execs with the wiring in place, equally I have seen many without.

Are you able to buy a fog light bezel that will fit the executive front bumper?
