« on: February 06, 2010 - 12:17:20 PM »
Where does the green wire leading from the fog lamp ('70 Cuda) go through the firewall?

It's the lowest hole to the left of the brake master cylinder back plate:

Ok, now how does the rest of the fog-lamp harness connect into the main harness?  my factory diagram seems to be incomplete.  can you provide any pics for that?  thanks!

Finally got to it! Here are shots of where the green wire for the roadlamps goes through the rad support and how they are threaded at the bottom of the support behind the lamps. Please let me know if you need a better shot of something - and if any member has a suggestion as to where I didn't do it right please speak up

Cool!  Thanks a Lot!!!  i bought the clip set that attaches the wire to the body, in front of the radiator. so that covers the firewall forward part.  Thanks for the great pics!!   :cheers:

Now the hard question:  where does the harness connect into the headlight wiring (& relay set-up), under the dash?  There is one green plug connector, and two yellow with grey plastic connectors. i just don't know where they go. one obviously goes to the switch (which has three blades - i guess it's a 1971 version - and my harness is a two-blade receptor)

If you don't want to crawl under there, i understand!  i was under my dash to see how the wiring all goes together.  what a pain, literally and figuratively!  at least i don't have my seats in yet, that made it a lot easier to lay down!  maybe somebody out there has some pics already... :dunno:

You saved me a crawl under the dash! I'm getting to the age where that's not so easy any more..  :faint:

Glad i saved you the trip!  i did a couple of searches: "fog lamp" & "lamp relay", and that had a lot of info.  I may need to get the '71 harness & relay.  it looks like the '70 relay (which apparently is also a '69 B-body power window relay) is not easy to find.

thanks for the pics you did post!!   :thumbsup:
