Where did you source the connectors to fit on the OEM fog lamps? Also, where did you find switch? I too missed to $200 option but have sourced OEM lights and bezel

hi, the connectors are YPC911650, the cables with the plugs 418238.
pay attention to the polarity of the connection and to the fact that the plugs are hard to insert.
for the place where I bought the switch write me privately.

When I google it and find the connector at Land Rover parts, the picture shows 3 poles...not 2. Is that just error in photo or does the center female just not get used?

yes it's him, the drawing is wrong.
I am sending you the photo with the thorns in the background, the only thing missing and you have to buy but of which I do not have the codes are the rubber pads for waterproofing.
I had these from vw.

Hey everyone, they sell a kit on eBay, or you can find a front wiring harness like I did that had fogs wired in, but you need a new turn signal stalk, and pathfinder to get the car to see the fogs and you have to tap the bcm. But well worth it for me.

the kit on eBay can be switched at your dashboard as aftermarket or tapped to the bcm with a new stalk and pathfinder programming...

Hello,
I'm in agreement with you,
the complete oem kit is very nice.
unfortunately when I did the retrofit I had considered this option, several criticisms:
exaggerated price +900 euros
technical difficulty, the wiring from the steering unit to the bcm control unit and to the bumper on my car is not there.
in Italy no dealer is willing to do post-sale coding, buying pathfinder is too expensive .....
for all these reasons, I spent a total of 300 euros with a decent result.
Marco
