15 OS DRL/Fog light question

I came across some manuals about how to install fog lights, but I am unsure about how to properly read them. before I start tearing down the front bumper in looking for the cables, does the ES come pre wired for the fog lights? I am rather interested in getting fog lights as I couldn't justify the price tag from the dealer for them.

I have seen where people have attached LED strips to their main head lamps for DRLS. I'm not very savvy with a solder but would attempt it if its going to be cheaper than the 150 fog light housing ones. this is a newer OS I'm trying not to mod too much since it has a warranty.


I appreciate your time for reading this , this is my first post hopefully I will continue keeping up with all these forums I see a lot of good ideas that will possibly come to life with my car.

There are threads that cover the DRL/Fogs, I can't recall their titles this early in the morning.

but,
If you're not that confident with the soldering iron and/or cutting the Stock wiring in a new vehicle, I would suggest you keep it real simple and leave it as is for now.

I can recommend that you replace the amber bulbs (upper front corners) with some high power LEDs bulbs.

Send me a pm. There's a guy on the Facebook group page who added fog lights to his ES. I can give you his info if you want. It seemed pretty easy front what he said. And very cheap as well.
