Help! Installing Ebay 02-04 ALTIMA HALO PROJ SMK Fog lights.

[Mack181]

So I know many people have bought these cool lookin halo fogs if not other types from ebay, and I was hoping to receive some help.
All i see is a box with 2 fogs and whole bunch of friggen wires lol.

Pics of everything i received are attached.

Please help!! MY 2002 Altima S IS Pre-Wired for fogs as I have located the connectors.

Um, dude it's plug and play. Thing is you may be pre-wired but unless you have a foglight stalk, the lights aren't going to come on. You would have to use a relay connected to your parking lights to turn em on with out the additional stalk.

I'm sure there are tutorials around the faq section to help you out.

Its pre-wired, only if its the right size of bulbs. For these fogs, im not sure what size of bulbs are they. If they are H11, they are fine.

Also, it is pre-wired doesnt mean it will turn on. Like Ey3CoNz2 said, you will need a headlight w/fog stalk to turn it on, or you can use the relay way, that will save yourself some money.

By the way, this set of fogs are HALO fogs. That means the halo rings and the actual fogs are two different circuit. You will need two separate switches and circuit to power them properly. Unless you wired the halo rings to the parking light circuit and the fogs to the fogs circuit. That will power your halo rings by with parking lights on. However, i am not sure is it safe to do that tho.

TigerLui is right, you would have to tap a second circuit to power your halo's separately. It's perfectly safe to tap your halo's to the parking lights and a relay to your headlights if you wanted to go without the stock, thing is you have to do them both via relay. I wouldn't recommend powering your halo's with just the parking lights or doing anything without a relay. The car's electrical system isn't very fun to deal with if something burns out or blows.

The stalk will cost you money if you wanna go more OEM route but the halo's would still need to be tapped into a separate circuit unless you want to light both the halo and the fog at the same time.

So in essence I don't have to have the stalk to set these things up?? Sorry for all the questions.

Yea, for what you want to do, a relay setting up the halo's to the parking lights, and another relay setting up the fogs to your headlights would be the best bet. That way the halos go on with your parking lights and the fogs go on with the headlights. Both stay on when your headlights go on.

Thanks so much! You know of any forum on here that could help me wire like that?

All of the cords will match up by color. the blue is ground, and the white goes to white. the black and red are your power sources which you can hook up anywhere ( i connected mines to my battery because i got lazy) you should wire your relay switch through your door and it will end up near your dimmer. the wires will match up with colors so its easy to do. you wont need to plug anything to the car besides the black and red cord. the other blue/white thingy is not needed

So I finally had time to get things wired up and working and they worked great! for a while, now the right halo (just the halo not the fog) has gone out and all the wires are connected, any ideas?? It was working before...

Sounds like the bulb blew...nothing new from a cheap set of fogs.
