The provisions for factory foglights are present in your vehicles. i recently swapped fogs for an MSP lip and discovered that all the wiring minus the actuall jumper from the wheel well to the fogs was there. There is a switch, blue male end plugged into the dummy switch in the dash. And the harness continues down to the passenger side wheel well and ends just under the washer bottle with a grey female end. The only peice that is not present is the jumper to the fogs, this is probably due to the fact that the MSP has a different turn signal circuit and does not use lamps mounted in the bumper like a P5. It uses the fender mounts instead. So this harness is not neccessary as it has the foglamp harness integrated into it.
For anyone wanting to integrate factory fogs you can purchase the foglight harness for an MP3 or an MSP (03) from the dealer or simply fabricate a jumper out of 12 guage wire and some weather proof connectors, if you want to cut the harness. this system does not need a new or larger fuse as it is on the same circuit as the headlamps and that circuit was designed for standard protege's and is equipped to handle the additional amperage of the foglights.
