First what year is your Tf. The early models had the fog wiring integrated into the loom even if the spots were not fitted. You can check this as there will be two connectors taped up below the head lights. Fuse 26 will be fitted, There will be a relay connector taped up behind the passenger airbag and a green connector taped up behind the bank of switches on the console. The colours on the 400 loom that I have seen are different from the colours on the Tf, so the RY on the 400 goes from the relay to the switch not to the fuse board. The WR goes from the relay to the passenger compartment fuse box on the 400 . The RB goes from the switch to the header unit which connects to the passenger compartment fuse box. The UR goes from the lamps to the relay and the spare UR goes to the multi function unit. The relay and switch and fogs are earthed. You need to be careful as you could end up with a fire. The TF requires an in line fuse between the fogs and the relay. Do you have the wiring diagram for the TF?
