depends if you want to do it "properly" (as in the way its done OEM) or if you want to just make them work. to do it properly the whole front assembly valance and bumper and all come off as the wires tuck in behind the back of the valance etc. otherwise, if you just want a setup most people would do, pretty straight forward if you know that stuff, just dont forget to use a relay as the in cabin button isnt designed to carry the amps the foglights require

so could i quite literally hook it up to a power source with a relay and to a switch in the cabin and it would work?

...and an inline fuse yep, about 10 amp, and use suitable gauge wire of course that can cope with that amps. remember you want the fuse to pop before the wiring melts. did that on a mates car a year or two back and still sweet as AFAIK
