Default question for 97+ fogs in 96

I have a 96 sc3 and was wondering if there is anything needed (wiring wise) for 97 fogs? Are the fog plugs the same? Will all needes relays be in place already? Ive seached but could only find info on older sc's where the fog was lower wattage or was just a turn lamp and wiring/relay work was needed.

Thanks

Wiring wise I'm not sure.. getting those 97 fogs to fit into your 96 bumper isn't going to happen though

Sorry I'm sure we were all confused since we didn't know about the new bumper lol but as far sa wiring I know you need the 97 turn signals stick because that is where the switch for the fogs are, You could also easily wire them up yourself on a separate 12v switch and just have a toggle underneath the dash out of site. I have a 93 but if I recall correctly 96\s "fogs" aren't true fogs but cornering lamps or something

Thats what I was thinking asianrob... my car already has the fog switch on the stalk and as far as I know the 96 had true fogs just a differnt housing and bumper. Havnt got my fogs in the mail yet. I was just wanting to see if there is anything else needed to get them working other than plug and play. Hectic schedule so I have to alot car time lol.

95-96 fog harness will be plug and play with your new 97 fogs. I know a lot of people (including me) that have a loose harness connection on the passenger side.

Tabaka... loose connection only on the passenger side? So do I need a sub harness for the fogs or are there conections on both sides for the fogs already? When I got my car (with 96 bumper) the fogs had been removed. So im not sure if there was supposed to be a sub harness or just connections at each corner.

Thanks again for all the help guys
