How the HELL do you install these fog lights??

[CorollaFanbot]

With no previous experience and a CE that isn't pre-wired for fog lights, I got an eBay OEM kit that has all of these plugs:

The wiring is just so awkward. Obviously the push button goes into my coin holder slot in my dash controls on the left side. But I have NO idea where the relay goes, where that green thing goes, where the white, floppy drive power connector looking thing goes, or where the brown or ground cable goes.

Any help?

Just for the record I've pretty much looked up as much as I can about this. Everyone who has a DIY or installations for installing fogs either assumes you have a pre wired corolla, or the description does not match the kind of wires that I have at all.

In the top picture of the full layout, the ground is the black wire near the bottom coming off the relay box.

You wire the ground to ground obviously. The main power wire goes to the battery. Then there is a smaller wire that you hook up to whatever power source you want the fogs to turn on with (like parking light). This wire activates the relay to let power flow from the battery to the fogs.

D.I.Y. OEM Type Fogs

Here's the electrical schematic for an 06 Corolla fog lights.

Should be the same for all 9th gen Corollas.

There is a 12V slot in your fuse box. Use a multimeter and crimp the red cable as picuted above to fit there. The Black is ground. I routed that to the screw that held the relat to the fusebox. (Be sure to use washers to isolate it) As for the Push button. You will need to remove the whole panel that contains the coin holder. There is a bundle of wires there. If I remember right, there is a green and red. The red was positive, and the green was ground. That is where I soldered mine in on the Corolla. Then take out the fog light slots and screw in the kit. Hope this helps! My kit was from k2motors. They have some install videos on their site for reference.
