retrofit fog lamps HELP/OPINIONS

To the moderators, sorry for posting in both how tos/ and show and shine.
i did how to's first and noticed generally slow action on the whole board.

I have Stock halogen headlamps with now fog lamps.
I am wondering if any body has retrofitted fog lamps on there evos.

Do all of our car have the same body harnesses ( or at least at the headlamps? )
Is there a fog lamp piggybac hiding that I didnt see. ( i have converted to zenons low beams )
I am debating on running wire and switches to do my own fog lamps, thats problematic engough as it is.
But how much of a pain is it to modify the headlamp to accept fog lamps.?

Help

I installed MR housings in my GSR. I added an aftermarket switch, relay, wiring, and fog bulb connectors. The GSR does not come with wiring for fogs.

Contact evodave for retrofitting your housings. Or sell your housings and pick up some MR housings for no downtime. PM me if you need wiring assistance.
