Default wiring up bumper indicators and fogs MK5 Escort

alright peeps,

got a mk5 xr3i bumper on the way and just wondering what the best way to wire the fogs and indicators as my standard bumpers dont have em

with the indicators was just thinking of splicing the wires to the normal indicators and putting in lower voltage led bulbs ????

but literally havent got a clue about the fogs !

i havent taken off the original front bumper but i take it the wiring is unlikely to be there !

any thoughts

cheers

brett

I think you might be in for a pleasant surprise and find the fog wires there, but if not easy enough to wire up through a relay, do the indicators as said, if you get the wires round the wrong way with led's(bulbs) they simply won't light up but will do no damage at all.
If you used LED fog bulbs you wouldn't even need a relay as current draw is so low.
