This is the best foglight install video out there most people just focus on bumper removal but noone tells you how to correctly wire the harness into the car .Thank you for your detailed tutorial
@@dwightstephenson1749 😎😎
Appreciate the step by step tutorial video, really helps me understand the process. Keep up the great mods and uploads !
Thank you !
Can you tap to the fuse box inside for the red wire. Instead of the headlights wire ?
@Pokka676 you probably could. You would just have to find the fuse that works like the headlight connection I made
Had to go to Lowe's and buy another grommet, but got it all working & looking good ! Thanks for the video !
You are most welcome 🙏 thank you for watching and I'm happy my video was good enough to help you with your installation. I have another video coming soon that I think you will be interested in so be sure to subscribe and turn on your notification so you know when it's available to watch.
Amazing! I don't have a Honda but still very interesting to watch. Thanks
Thank you
Just did this exact set up on my 23 BB civic hatch with one exception. I purchased an H11 to LED connector conversion harness. Everything else I did identical to you and it works flawlessly. I love the look of the fog lights. Thank you and I def appreciate this video! I also replaced the chrome H for the oem black H emblem. Def got an extra 40 horses outta this install NO TUNE😂 LOL. Thanks again!
@Anthony Rodriguez I think I got only 10hp😄. I'm glad my video was clear enough for you to follow so you could do your own install. That's why I keep doing these types of mods instead of the regular cosmetic mods. I appreciate your support for my channel, and thank you for watching .
I'm just watching this because of boredom and that was a whole lot of work just for fog lights 😂 man I am not excited if I buy a car with no fog lights
@Tyler, I totally understand. It was a must-have for me, plus I enjoy working on cars. The thing is, it should have come installed from the factory, but honda screwed us over. Thanks for watching tho, I appreciate it.
@@rotheinstallerbro I order a pair but I don’t want to do it DiY I don’t feel safe, where can I go to install them with labor work :(?😊
@bakedcookiezzz I'm really not sure. Maybe to a shop where they install sound system. Which state are you living?
I don’t even need the dogs but I want them anyway because I hate the way the blank disks look
Thank you a bunch bro this and the horn upgrade will be my next mod ❤
No problem. Glad I could share the knowledge.
I got the same car and same
Color such a beautiful car always been my dream to own a civic hatchback I’ll like to put these on mine I’m the future
@Victor Chavez it's a great addition/upgrade
Thanks for this video I also need fogs on my sport hatch👍🏼
Nice install. Just got ‘23 Civic Si. I really wish it came with fog lights.
@b702K Thank you, and congrats on the new ride!
@@rotheinstaller Much appreciated. Watched your video on using a fuse tap to hardwire my radar detector in the new ride. Thanks for that too!
@@B702K no problem. Just hit that subscribe button and help me share the video. I have more content coming soon.
@@rotheinstaller Will do. Have a good one bro.
Thank you! And you have a great one as well
There seems to be two types of wire harnesses out there. One with a two wire ( red and black) and a three wire harness (red, blue and black) which is the better one. I have the two wire harness. For those that have the three wire harness: red wire goes to constant (hot/battery), blue to the one he hooked up from the headlight plug or tap from fuse box that turns on when car is on (ACC) and black to ground.
I have one that has two white wires, red black and yellow… idk how to install and this kinda helped but didnt at the same time 😭
Good afternoon my car came with a additional wire to the switch that goes inside the car were do I connect that? I have a2020 accord lx any help would be appreciated
@manuelespinal9449 I think you will have to get the combination switch that has the fog light option. I suggest going to your local honda dealer or if you could get the part number, you could order it yourself.
@@rotheinstaller thanks i got the aftermarket light from ebay. Its the same set up you have with the wire fore the exception of that extra wire thats run next to the green connector that goes to the switch for the cabin i have seen some cut it off and others used a fuse tap to connected
@@manuelespinal9449 I wouldn't cut or tap into anything because I like the oem look
i got that same car and color but ina hatchback. i love it.
@benified mine is the hatchback. Great car!
@@rotheinstaller i bought mine last year in april but it took until the end of july before it was ready for me to pick up. they literally sold me a car that wasn't even built yet. but all in all it was totally worth the wait.
@benified 6 I got mine on my birthday last year. I was very lucky to have found it a few miles from my house, and the dealership told me it had just come in the day before.
Keep doing your thing bro🙏🏾
Thank you!....I will. I'm trying to grow the channel so please subscribe and hit the notification bell. 🙏
Nice video. I had to do this when installing my DRL’s on my 22 sport hatch. I struggled getting the two 10mm under the hood. Idk why but it just wouldn’t unscrew. I didn’t know about the plastic black thing under the headlights though. Gonna remember that when I finally install some fog lights
Thank you for watching. I've watched other videos and I didn't like how they skipped around and not show everything they did but let me know if their is anything you like me to do a video on and I'll be sure to present it.
Struggling to remove the switch plug from the wire as you did to pull it thru the grommet. Any pointers you may have ? Thanks & nice job !
You need a de-pin key in order to remove the wires from the switch connector. If you don't have the tool, you will have to make a bigger hole in the grommet in order for the connector to go through. Thank you for watching and for the support. Let me know if you need anything else in order to help you out
You don’t have to go that route if you don’t want as the pin connector will fit through the grommet with just a little bit bigger hole
Fantastic.I just followed your steps the only thing is I can't unplug the harness from headlights.is there a red pin u have to push in?
There is a release tab on the side, not sure if it's left or the right. You have to press it in and pull the harness at the same time with a little more strength in order to get it off. It's locked on a bit tight.
Thank You. You r a life saver.Thanx again
@@kingjanusziii4998 you are most welcome. I'm glad the vide was of great help. Is your light installed and working okay ?
Took me 2 days but I did add on a fuse under the dashboard to fuse 45 ( DRL
I was afraid I could cut wrong wire in headlight harness or tap to a wrong one they felt so flimsy and thin. Thank you for all the help.
A bit old now but are the fog lights controlled by the light stalk at all? I want to wire the fog lights to come on when the low beams come on, and automatically turn off when the car is off. I don't want to have to keep pushing the on/off fog light switch to have them come on, and I also don't want the fog lights to be on anytime the car is on... just leave it on auto and forget it. Is this possible?
@ghettoliscious the lights are controlled by a stand alone button. It can be connected to the stalk but it is more technical to get that done.
Thank you for this! Quick question, instead of running the switch all the way in how about I just hide it under the hood with some heat protection tape?
@kishanlad2150 I wouldn't do that. If you want to turn it on/off at times, you will not be able to do it. Just go ahead and put it in the car.
@@rotheinstaller thanks bro
Comment might be a little late, but were the fog lights actually functional going down the road? They look a little dim once you lit them up. More for looks?
@jesussilva9510 they are functional. They give more of a wider view than the headlight. They are not the brightest, but they get the job done.
Great video and agree you should always go with OEM whenever possible. Hope the 23’s are the same with regards tapping into the blue wire on the light harness.
@midnightrider723, the 23s should be the same. Honda never usually changes anything in the first year.
@@rotheinstallerone last question which is why tap the headlight wire vs use a fuse tap on the ignition fuse? Just curious if there is some advantage.
@midnightrider723 I read somewhere that fuse taps weren't safe, not sure on the accuracy of that info tho. For me, it was alot easier and a guaranteed way of not leaving on the lights when the car is off. Again, that's just what I think.
I'm also confused on how I'm supposed to take off the green wiring connector for the plug, could you link a tool on amazon that I can use?
@Michael XuTerminal Removal Tool Kit 82 Pcs Depinning Tool Electrical Connector Pin Removal Tool Kit Pin Extractor Tool Set Wire Terminal Release Tool for Automotive Car Household Devices a.co/d/2zgCdeW
@Michael Xu you don't have to remove the connector, you would only need to make a bigger hole in the grommet in order for the connector to pass through
The green connector does not have to be removed in order to fish it through the fender it’ll fit with the connector on
Man you are a rockstar :-) it looks like it was just a little over 100 bucks worth of parts for OEM factory fog lights for a Honda Civic. The cheap Chinese kit is about the same. I would much rather have the OEM stuff than the Chinese crap for the same money. I bet if Honda had this as an accessory it would be around $400 or so… great job :-)
I strongly believe in genuine parts. I must say tho that the lights are used but they were in mint condition. I saw the generic ones and I was skeptical about them. All the parts was a little under $150 and as you saw in the video, it's not hard to install. I made it very detailed because the videos on UA-cam are really not. Thank you for watching and Thank you for the support!
What year CRV are those fog lights from?
They are from the 2021 model. The link is in the description for them.
@@rotheinstallerhey do the fog lights work while their blinking?
@@bakedcookiezzz while what is blinking? I don't understand
Putting in my fog lights now, had a lot of trouble taking the front bumper off
@jacobabreu9076 I hope the installation is going good. Any questions just let me know
Thank you sir!
My wiring kit has a red and black wire, I saw that you connected the red wire to the blue wire(headlight thing) but what did you do with the black wire?
@Michael Xu the black wire is the ground I did show in the video exactly where I placed it
I have a 23 sport hatch is this the same process?
@Anthony yes it is
Thanks brother your video helps a lot 🥹
I'm glad it was of help to you!
Hey ro.. Can give a guide on how yiu installed sub woofer. What amp you used plz
@saber I'll see what I can do for you
when you turn off your car does it turn off your foglight too? Even if you forgot to turn off the switch for foglight?
I’d like to know the answer to the question as well.
@Aidan Liam and @Justin C yes the lights turn off when you turn off the the car and the light in the switch also turns off. You don't ever have to worry about your battery draining.
That’s awesome thank you for the installation guide!
@@aidenliam6541 you are most welcome. Thank you for watching. Please share and subscribe for more installation videos and if you have an installation you want to request just let me know and I'll try to get it done for you.
Can the lightbulb be removed in these fog lights? To put a yellow projector bulb in
@tpeas2452 no it can't be removed. You can purchase a yellow tint to put over the outer lens. That's been the mod I see alot of guys use.
My wiring kit came with a red, blue and black wire.. Red gets tapped into the headlight. Black goes to the ground. Am I correct? What do I do with blue wire?
Also what do you do with the automotive relay?
@Relaxing Sounds the video shows what I did with the fuse and relay at time stamp 23 minutes. Your red and black wires are correct but for the blue wire I'm not sure because I don't know what it's for. Your kit should have come with paperwork to show what the wires are for.
It seems like there are two types of wire harnesses. A two wire (red and black) and a three wire ( red, blue black) which is the better one. Connect red to constant (hot), the blue to the one he connected from the headlight plug (remote/trigger) and black to ground.
where did you get the 3 wire harness from? I’m thinking I should go that route
In most videos of people wiring the fog light harness they usually connect the red wire to the positive side to the battery. Do you have to cut it ? Or did you cut it because you preferred it ?
@adriang.2034 I cut it because of the way I connected it.
Amazing bro! by any chance you can list or show the whole tool kit you used. Thanks
@Jagdev Singh everything I used is listed in the description
While the fog light is on and you turn off the car, after you removed the key, would the fog light still stay on?
@H Lai when you cut the car off the fog light cuts off immediately. You don't have to worry about the battery draining out.
Thank you. I missed you mentioned you were using the power source from the headlight instead from the battery at 15:00. Great job!
@@hlai5390 thank you!
Nice work!
Thank you
@Quang Lâm You're welcome!
Came out so sick! I have a 2002 sport myself but I’m not handy with mods. Do you work on other cars ?
2022**^
@william lorenz Thank you for watching. I really don't, but I do make exceptions sometime
@@rotheinstaller I’m in Skokie Illinois lmk what I need to make it happen
@william lorenz everything you need is in the video description, and if I do it for you, I do charge an installation fee
@@rotheinstaller that’s cool let me know what I need to do to get things going
I have a 2023 CRV which did not come with fog lights. Would i have to do something different?
I don't think the 23 crv was designed to use fog lights
@@rotheinstaller true, it would have to be something completely custom.
@@rotheinstaller yea but i wonder if can still add them with out voiding the warranty.🤔
@@NinjaAlex6r that I can't say for sure because you might have to cut holes in the bumper
Great job my friend!
@chrisdesimone4249 thank you!
@@rotheinstaller taking on this task very soon, waiting for the led replacement bulbs first before I install the kit.
@chrisdesimone4249 just be careful with the plastic clips
@@rotheinstallerthanks I have Amazon backups lol. 🎉
@@chrisdesimone4249 lol...that's funny
Thank you for this video friend! Do you have Ktuner yet?
No I have the 2.0 N/A engine
I'm glad you like the video and please like and subscribe to the channel. I have more videos coming, I'm just waiting for stuff to be delivered
Thanks brother your video helps a lot 🥹 32:21
Do you think this same set up on hooking it up would work for the 21 accord
I'm pretty sure it could, you would just have to find the proper power source since it's a different car.
Thanks bro it looks very similar
No problem, thanks for checking out the video. Do me a favor and please like, share and subscribe it will be very much appreciated
when u cut the old h11 off and tied in the air bag clip did u tie all the wires or match them
@Clayton you have to match the wires positive and negative. The way to know if you connected them correctly is to join the wires and test them on the battery before you do the install. When you test them make sure the light stays on, if the light cuts off in a second then then the wires are connected incorrectly. Let me know if that helps.
@@rotheinstaller hey man thanks for the quick reply. i’m going to buy basically all said items and use the airbag relay plug in like suggested.. when i make that initial cut on the new plugs do i tie my positive to the bottom rounded part? or tie positive to the single prong
@@marijuaxa are you talking about the wire that stretches from the connector, are you referring to the wire as "prong"?
@@rotheinstaller on the rockauto part that plugs in... what side is my positive like the flat.. or rounded side with the pins inside. i mean "prong" but the stand alone pin that feeds into the plug in.. im gonnna cut the harness and tie that rockauto one in but which is my red(pos) the one with the pins is my positive?
@@marijuaxa so the rock auto connector has 2 pins, I don't know which side is positive or negative. I just connected the connector wires to the harness and tested it by touching the positive and negative harness wires on the battery. When the lights didn't stay on I knew the connector wires were cross connected so I took the wires off and changed around the wires.
Does the 10th gen civic fog lights kit fits on that 2022 civic fog light location?
@miguelitoloco9 I'm not sure, but I think it should fit.
What size is the switch, mine don't fit is to small?
@jesuscontreras1912 I'm not sure of the size. The switch came with the wiring harness. I did get a factory style switch from aliexpress, I do have a video of the installation, and I think the link is in the description for it.
With you tapping into the headlights, can you use the fog if the headlights are set to auto?
@midnightrider723 yes. You can run the fog light independently.
@@rotheinstaller ok so my ability to use the fog lights don’t depend on the headlight coming on when set to auto? Cool and thanks! Your thorough videos are exactly what the public do it yourselfers like me need!
@midnightrider723 you can run the fog lights whenever you feel like, whether the switch is on auto or not.. thank you for watching, I'm glad you liked the video. All I ask is to just leave a like and subscribe to the channel.
Is there any real issue with running the positive to the battery. I’m just wary of ecu codes
@Anthony if you connect it directly to the battery, the light will stay on even when the car is off if you forget to turn it off at the switch, which will result in a drained battery. Connect it the way I did, and the car will be fine. No codes. Been running mine for almost a year now and no problem.
Alright sounds good. I’ll do that way possibly tm.
How long did it take you brother?
@TacoVic 45 mins to an hour is to be expected
@@rotheinstaller that's not bad at all. I just got a 23 civic Si and want fog lights. I'll go back and watch your video again when I get them
@TacoVic no problem. All I ask is for you to hit that subscribe button.
@@rotheinstaller already did my man.
I followed the direction but the fog lights won't light, maybe I didn't connect the airbag connector the right way? Any suggestions?
@user-tc8fr2cp9c Yes, the positive and negative have to be connected correctly. You can check that
@@rotheinstaller how do I determine which is positive and negative on the wiring harness
@user-tc8fr2cp9c the wiring harness should have a red and black wire. Red is positive and black is negative.
Okay, I'll let you know how it works out, thanks for you time and you video
@user-tc8fr2cp9c thank you for watching! Just help me out by subscribing to the channel. I'll help out alot.
I'm in Illinois, west burbs. Would you install that on my '23 Si for payment?
@joe Sure, DM me on Instagram @Ro_g90
Link isn’t available anymore for fog lights, any other sources?
I can get the part numbers for you, and you can order it from any online honda store. You will pay more for it tho. Will that be okay with you?
@@rotheinstaller need that
@@Travis.Rivera the part numbers are in the description
Sucks that the sport or the ex didn’t get the fog lights
@elsierra9741 I 100% agree. I think it's a marketing thing for us to buy the touring/sport touring trim
where did you tap the hot wire for the fog lights? i can see you tapped the switch's hot wire onto the blue wire for the 12v.
@Eman That was the only wire I tapped. My wiring kit came with only 2 wires to be connected. If you have the same wiring kit, just follow everything I did in the video. Feel free to reach out if you have more questions.
@@rotheinstaller thank you sir!
@@linoemmanuels you are most welcome! Please like share and subscribe to the channel for more videos coming soon.
Can I pay you to install mine, im in the aurora area of Illinois
@f82jak63 how much are you willing to pay ?
@@rotheinstaller 100$ work? Or I can pay the amount you think is right for the amount of labor.
@@Staticcjayy hit me up on fb messenger @romie ro
@Staticcjayy did you get the fog lights installed?
i have a similar kit off ebay and i installed exactly the same way and they dont work. there appears to be power to switch but lights dont work. relay and fuse are good.
@somethingspecial52 the lights might be defective. I installed a set for someone, and one was not working, also bought on eBay and was past the return date so he couldn't return it. I had him order the original one from honda, and there were no issues after that.
Do you need one or two airbag connectors? One for each light?
You need 2 connectors, and yes, one for each light
@@rotheinstaller do you have anything that shows you how to put them onto the harness?
@slwluke I do not, but it's very easy to do. Just cut off the harness connectors and join on the new ones. Make sure you test it before you install it on the car because it is polarity sensitive
@@rotheinstaller how do you test it? All my parts came in haha I’m gonna put them on tuesday
@@slwcivic attach the connectors to the harness and test it on the battery. If the light stays on, it is connected properly, but if you test it and the light cuts off immediately, it is connected incorrectly.
Clean as fuck bro
Thank you! 🙏
I was excited to see a video that was explaining how to install fog lights into an 11th gen civic until I saw you cutting electrical wires of your car that is when I realized how idiotic i was to think your video would be any different than anyone else’s
Just get the wiring kit so you won't have to cut anything and just install it the way i did if you want. I had to make mine at the time I did the video. Sorry, it's not to your expectations.
Wanna do mine I’m in south Beloit
I would love to help you out but I can't 😊
No no!! You need to connect that power wire to battery thats the relay 30terminal you need to connect the relay 85 pin to that parking light wire not the headlight!!!!
why honda does this!!!! omg so complicated
Thanks brother your video helps a lot 🥹

hey love the detailed explanation and I will like to know if u can send the part # for both head lights . I found the ebay one and I tried to use the part # in my local Honda dealer website but it state it don't fit 2022 civic
@Malvin Martinez do you need the headlights or fog lights part numbers?
will you be doing a video for the fog fillers?
@malvin Martinez fog fillers? I'm not understanding.. if you are talking about the fog lights, the crv and the civic use the same thing
yes send me the part # and did you get my message with the part #?
