Just did the foglight re-wire.

I effin love it!

Its so easy, I read the threads about people having trouble with it and I can't understand whats to hard about it. Its easier than wiring a A/F guage.


Anyways, yeah... I felt like I had to make a thread to express how I feel about this situation.

its cause some of the different years have different wiring/different colors so when people go to wire theirs and the guide is all different they get tripped up

I have a 89 and I used the write-up for a 87 and it was the same exact thing.

One of these days i'll get around to doing that mod. Need to get some e-codes as well.

 

[Kckazdude]

Glad you got it done. Not as bad as some make it out to be.

How did your brake issue comeout?

 

[Clip]

can you post the link to the writeup you used?

Also,

All you are doing is isolating the fog circuit from the headlight circuit.



For Pre-89:



1. Find the fog light relay, cut the white/green wire (pin 3) and ground the side going to the relay.

2. Find the fog light switch, cut the red/black wire (pin 4) and connect the side going to the switch to a switched +12VDC power source. See Note



For 89+:



1. Find the fog light relay, cut the red/black wire (Pin 1) and connect the side going to the relay to a switched +12VDC power source. See Note

2. Find the fog light switch, cut the red/green wire (Pin 4) and ground the side going to the switch.



Note: For example: splice it into the black/red wire (Pin 2) on the cruise control switch (pre-89) or cruise control main relay (89+), or splice it into the red/yellow wire (Pin 2) on the fog light relay, however this will result in the fog lights functioning even if the car is off.

Takes all of five minutes to do, but makes all the difference in the world.

 

[Supra469]

Great. That's what i'm planning to do next.

It's awesome for when you go through tunnels but don't want to raise your headlights.

One of the first things I had done to the Supra

Edit: As a matter of fact, here is the first picture taken of the Supra back in '06. With the fog light re-wire all in it's stock ride height glory:
