unless you shipped your car from overseas you have to purchase a fog light.

He's got a '13 so that's probably the reflector (new to 13s). So yeah you'd have to order the actual foglight.

just use some 16 gauge speaker wire and black tape. Both connectors have big enough gaps that you can stuff the wire in without spending $17 plus shipping for a 15¢ piece of wire and needle.

it should be fine for the EVO-r light as they both use the same voltage.

What did you do? Tells us, in detail, what you did and maybe we can help you figure it out. Sounds like you lost a wire that is common to all the rear lights.
