D) Foglight switch harness install & wire tapping
This section covers how to install the foglight switch harness and where to tap the switch/relay control(+) signal from.

***Warning - It is recommended that you disconnect the battery before working on wiring. /Warning***

For the most part you can refer to these online instructions @http://www.handa-accessories.com/fit/09fog.pdf for steps #33-62 on pages 8-13. The deviations from these instructions are detailed below:
step #36 - instead of looking for a 2-pin connector (it's non-existant on Sport models), you'll need to connect it to a tap on pin #42 of the 'C' connector & the line you just ran from the rear of the car in Part C. This is to limit the use of the Rear Fog to function only when your parking/headlights are on.





I chose to cut off the 2-pin connector and switch to molex connectors.


step #38-40 - ignore these and just mount the relay holder directly onto the MICU, it slides in front-to-back and snaps in place.


step #42 - instead of a 20A, a single foglamp burns rougly 2A so I just reused the DRL fuse from position #15 (7.5A not shown in the picture above) and moved it to position #4 indicated by the arrow.

Once you're done, the bottom half of the MICU should look something like this.


Pop in the Switch, plug in everything, zip tie loose cables in place and test it out.
