Default Fog Light Install Help

I have the amber ebay fogs, I guess the depo fogs. I'm up to step 33 on the .pdf installation document where it says "plug the harness into the blue-taped connector at the rear of the fuse box". Ok I did that, but now I have two male brown connectors just hanging there, with nothing to plug them into. I'm so confused...again, I have two male brown connectors, with no mention of them in the .pdf directions. Can anyone help me out?

I believe my old DIY thread will help you. Read it in its entirety first. See if it completely applies.

Another question: Did you have any trouble connecting the brown power connectors to the fusebox? Because I'm trying to click the connectors into their respective slots, and they won't click into place no matter how hard I try. They just fall out of the socket.

Have you tried holding them in the slots and seeing if everything works? If everything works you could use a little bit of tape to hold the connectors in. Are you sure you putting them in the right place, if they dont fit somewhere you can always just tap into another source for your power like your headlights because you only turn ur fogs on usually lol with your headlights.

They're supposed to click into place. If you don't feel the click, press harder. If that doesn't work, its upside down...

Ok, got it and the foglights work great. Turns out you were right about PUSH HARDER. I had to push so hard on those connectors that it ripped off some skin on my thumb, lol.
