I'm pretty sure you can put the Jdm fog connectors on the stock harness connectors.

The bumper is pretty easy to mount. It's taking the USDM one off that's a PITA.

When are you going to start working on it?

I would just run the outer 35W lamps on the original fog lamp wiring then run relays for the inner lamps to come on with the high beams only (which is how they are originally set up on the JDM cars). If you have the inner beams on permanently you will blind oncoming motorists. I think the inner beam lamps are 55W. I generally would avoid running higher wattage lamps (especially 100W) because you're likely to melt the plastic in the casing and ruin your new JDM spotlamps. Yes I have seen it happen before. You just don't need a high wattage bulb in the fog lamps because they are there purely for foggy conditions and a low wattage spread out beam pointing down is what works best in the fog.

to keep from melting i was gonna run Yellow 3K HID's in the outer projectors, and HID's that match my headlights in the inner portion of the foglights. i know that they will be blinding but i wont be running them all on the time anyways.
