Finally had the opportunity to use the info in this very well explained...very well paced video...and install a pair of Diode Dynamics SS3/Yellow Lens fog lamps. Excellent video...BEST of the BUNCH out there on this topic!!! Would've been hard pressed to figure out w/o this. Saved me some money on installation. THANKS VERY MUCH!
i see a lot of different video on RUclips, and your is very professionnel, good job
Thank you for the feedback
Thank you! This made installing fog lamps on my '18 XT very easy. I 100% would not have attempted it without your tutorial.
Awesome thank you subscribe we have more content coming
Dude you rock. Got mine installed using this video. This is the best video for this exact application. My opinion is the answer! lol
Dude this was super helpful. All you need to know is right here! Got mine installed today on my 2015 forester XT :D
Great to hear!
Thank you for such a complete walk though. This has really helped answer a lot of the questions i had doing this!
Yeah, it is fairly simple and worth the upgrade. Cheers.
Great video and so much easier than the install on the 2012 Forester! At least the control is not on the turn signal switch bar!
This was supper helpful thanks for doing this!
Perfect instructions! Made my XT look way better.
Thanks you very much I was looking for where the rally goes on my 2015 forester.
Awesome video! I will have to do this in my 2019 Forester and I’ll let you know how it goes.

Where you got the parts from?
Fog Switch
Relay
Can you add aftermarket lights such as an amber fog for off-roading by just changing the bulb?
What is the part # and your website for the lamp kit 2017 base forester CVT
What is the difference between the H4510SG120 and H4510SG160 kits? I understand that the *120 is for Turbo, but how are they different? Will the process be the same for my 2018 Subaru Forester 2.0L CVT XT Premium? Thanks!
The 2014-2018 turbo have the same fog light kit
@@DIYCarHunters Thanks for the video! It worked for me and the lights are in. The 2018 kit came with the replacement button panel so I didn't have to drill a hole and also a couple of additional plastic screws to hold the light in place but other than that mostly the same. Their instructions wanted me to remove the entire glove compartment panel and I'm glad you showed us that we can get to the relay through the bottom - much easier.
good walkthrough. i have a 2018 xt and install was just the same. does anyone know where to find a tutorial or video or any info on some sort of bypass for the fog lights so you can have them on without having the low beams on? i would love to be able to turn the fogs on without having my headlights on. i realize the drls will probably still be on though.
That's a good question...
I am having a hard time finding the pigtails by the fog light location but I have the connector behind the traction control panel, any tips? 2017 forester base
It’s taped up on the harness next to the frame rail unless someone cut them
does it fog lights auto off after engine off?.
Am I able to use any relay with same amps?
thank you very educative. regards
Very informative. Straight to the point. No lame ask music and vlog style bullshit kid crap.

is this also for the 2018 forester xt premium as well? what is the part number for the relay?
Yes the xt is the same
Great vid bro 👍🏽
Thank you please subscribe
I assume the 2015 Forester would be the same based on what I have read. Can I order the fog lights through your company?

i have a 2017 forester base and it doesn't look like that. it seems to have an all black bezel but with a plastic circle piece where the light would be. can i use that bezel and just get the light? i haven't taken it off to see if the bumper has the same bolt holes in it like this one.
You will need fog lamp brackets from the Dlr everything else will work the same
Can you do a video for a 2015 Forester?? I have 2.5i Premium and haven’t been able to figure out the exterior wiring.
It’s the same setup their presides right by the rails
Is this the same for a Subaru Legacy ?
how do you adjust the level of the light?
in my honda crv, theres a screw thing i can turn counter clockwise or clockwise to go up or down. is there anything like that here?
Yeah each for lamp has it screw or Phillips
Im looking for a kit like this for a 17 xt
Will this also work on a 2016 Forester XT?
Yes it will
Do all foresters come pre-wired for fog lights? I have a 2017 6 speed
Yes they are all pre wired
Where did you get your fog light switch and relay bro???
We take the extras from Subaru vehicles that we recycle. Give us a call if you are looking for some parts.
What kind of relay should I get? Most kits don’t come with it
Get one from the local junk yard or Dlr they are not expensive
If you are near ssp stop by and I’ll give u one for free
What's the part number for the relay you used?
I’ll check tomarrow
Holy shit the door beep
-_-
I can’t find where the relay for the fog lights from a Subaru ascent 2019 can someone give me information the area where the relay goes from the fog lights
We haven’t got our hands on one yet but watch the video we made for the forester 19 might be the same
what bulb does it use?
Depends on the fog lamp kit you buy online I believe the oem is h16 or h11
i have oem fog lights.. @@DIYCarHunters
Take the key out of the ignition.... smh
Lol ya sorry
Will this also work on a 2017 Outback base model?
Don’t know we will make one video
yeah its pretty much the same for all subarus - my impreza had the wires tucked up and everything- subaru is pretty simple with design and location of stuff- doesnt really change too much across models- same oil filters, cabin filters, bulbs etc
