Default Fog lights install on Canadian spec B5 S4
There appears to be a plug behind the bumper trim panel for the light itself but no plug behind the switch in the dashboard.

Has anyone added factory fog lights to a Canadian spec B5 S4? How to do it?

Default
wiring ends at the B pillar relays. Need everything from there to the dash switch.

this statement has effectively eliminated my desire for fogs...don't they block the intercoolers?

Default I recall reading some of the guys in the US actually preferring our B5 S4s because of that reason
Whether it made a difference or not, dunno.

well it can't hurt the intercoolers and like Bruno has said, the light output gained seems minimal.

Default Yes the light gain is minimal as they're really intended for DRL
Unless you take the lights out and put in some proper yellow fog lights.

Of course, people also like the looks with the fogs.

Minimal is a compliment... there is really no light output gained. Get 55w HID's for real light.

Default Ha. He means 55W HID, rather than the "normal" 35W HID. Bruno's car lights
up like the Skydome!
