Jeep Liberty Fog Lights
 
Okay, I've got the aftermarket foglights wired anf they would work if
I connected them up direct to the battery - but I'd like to be legal
and wire them to work on dipped beam. I'm told that there is a harness
socket for the OEM foglights and that it is somewhere on the left side
front wing/ fender.

I've searched but can't find any unused terminal blocks. Just in case
it is reversed for the RHD model I've checked on the right hand side
but still no joy.

Can anyone tell me where to find it - if it exists?

Also, where have people fed accessory cables throught he firewall? I'm
looking at the left hand side where the main harness comes through,
but something keeps blocking any feed I put through.

I don't want to drill any more holes, so any guidance would be
welcome.

That harness is good for 55w lights. What are you aftermarket fogs?

You can wire the relay so that they only come on with the low beams. Use
the hot wire to the low beam light to power the relay.

Re: Jeep Liberty Fog Lights
 
Whent hey installed the renegade lights on my Liberty, they drilled a hole
in the firewall.
Do you not have the instructions or are they some aftermarlet that isn't OEM
?

There were a lot of things about the install that made me just take it in
and have it done.
I was glad I did, that way if I had a meltdown, it was covered.
