fog lights and ebrake

Yeah, what is involved with wireing a set of stock headlights in to an Alero that didn't have them from before.
'
Wire running: Are the wires already there? What is the situation with the fuses on teh passenger side?, And mounting them? Or anything I haven't mentioned.

Is there a how too on this?

And, is there anyopions for making the ebrake handle different?

Wiring for the fog lights should already be in place, its part of the wiring harness


The E brake just sucks, you could make it suck more or suck less but it would still just suck

Yep, my Alero doesn't have wiring for the fog lights either. I did however pick up a '01? front lighting harness to swap in. It'll add the plugs for the fog lights and also switch my DRLs to the high beams.

After that, if you want it to be just like stock, you'd have to wire in the wires from the relay to the BCM and the switch to the BCM. As well as get the fog lights enabled.

HERE IS THE TRANSLATION


What is involved in wiring up a set of stock foglights to an alero that did not have them before, are the wires all there? are the fuses there and the connection points that follow and can be soldered on? are the mounting locations there along with a HOW TO?

Also, are there any options for making the Ebrake handle look different?

Leave the kid alone!! I think he's OK

The Ebrake sucks, but I'm pretty sure it doesn't come off. Mine doesn't

I saw a piece at Autozone for 7 dollars, looked like it attached to the top of the ebrake. Looked like a pos, was wondering if there was anything like that, that was worth anything?

the part you saw was prob an aftermarket shifter knob, not a e-brake knob. i don't even know if they make those...

as for the fogs, i'd just run dedicated power and relays for them, and then just hook them into a small switch on the inside so on is on and off is off whenever you want.
