No my fit/jazz is 2004, so the fuse box is differente that was in the picture. The kit is oem, so i thought that I could do it by myself.
I will call some friends to help me to install that thing.

Thank you StormSilverGD3 for the write-up and thank you to everyone for all your advice/tips!!! I installed my fog lights last night and everything is working great! I found OEM Honda foglight kit on ebay for like $65 or so.... pretty damn good deal

Any tips on removing the 20 Pin harness from the fusebox? That is the one hangup I'm having in completing my installation. I've had success with everything else. Are there special tools to loosen the harness from the box?

If you have the OEM kit, you can plug in the 20 pin connectors you have to one another to see how they lock together and then look how they come apart. Makes it much easier.

I just did the install myself and have a few questions.

I found the plug with the blue tape but it is identical to the piece I want to plug into it. Is there only one brownish plug up there? My blue tape was just hanging on by a thread I didn't pull it at all. Also this 1 pin 2 prong brownish clip had a lot of gunk in it as well. Is this the clip I should be plugging in? If so, is my wiring garbage for the fog lights because the plugs look identical. No male and female to plug into. Also my wiring came with a built in fuse relay as well as it's own fuse to power it so that it didn't have to directly go i to the fuse box. Any suggestions would help. I have my lights installed but for some reason my wiring does not seem to add up. The brownish clip I'm referring to is so up there and you can barley pull it down. Not enough slack.

So I bought the replica fogs like another member on this board. Install is fine it's just wiring them up.

I would like to wire my fog lights into my head lights so when they go on so do the fogs without a switch. Don't really need or care for the switch. I know I have to splice the wire if the fog light harness and solder it to the headlights in one spot. Which wore would I solder it to?

Sports bumper will have the cut outs for the fog lights. It's quite simple if you do not need to cut the bumper and it already has the slots. If it has the slots for the fog lights, the fogs should go directly in. If y are a base fit, you will have to wire your fogs. I created a diy in how to wire the fog lights. I would give that a quick read. It's real basic but it will tell you which wires to solder to your head light wires.

1. Since you have a sport bumper, your fog will screw directly in.
2. All you need to do after is wire the fog lights. Which I have created a DIY for.
