I did have trouble with it. I didn't see the wires under there that are in the how too thing from ceg. Maybe there is a difference in wiring with the years.

Great Contour I have a question... How did you tie in the fog lights to come on with the running lights? I want to do that to mine but I wanted to know if you had any pointers.
