    They look like plugs for relays.

      Those are the plugs for the "Foglight Relay" and the "Headlight Relay." I am also in the process of finding those relays. Did your harness come with the relays or no? if not, go to a junkyard and you can find two relays for the smaller plug in the underhood fusebox (you'll only need one), and the larger relay you can find on accords equipped with a wing spoiler. this relay is located by the antenna in the trunk by the driver's side, and is bolted up with a 10mm bolt and nut.

      I have yet to test them, but according to Joshy, the relays that were hooked up to the foglight harness are regular relays that could be found elsewhere on the car, so they should work.

      credit goes to Joshy for letting me know where the smaller relay is at, and Tippey764 for letting me know where the larger relay is at.

      good luck!

        No mine did not come with the relays. Ill be taking a trip to the jy then.Good thing I decided to wire them first so that way I could make sure they work. Which relays that are already in my car can I use? or is that possible.

          mmm, i think all those relays mentioned earlier are used for other purposes already, so you'll need to go to the JY and get spares

          just a recap, here are the relay locations:

          1) underhood fusebox relay (there are 2)
          2) relay by the antenna/rear driver's trunk lining (there is 1)

            great i get to go the PnP now and pray that i find some of these relays. which ones do I get though? the two under the hood are for the big one? and the trunk relays are for the little one?

                The 2nd relay is only found on the car if you have a spoiler, spoilerless cars do not have that relay

                    Yes..... on a car with a spoiler, if no one has taken the wiring already, it will be bolted at the base of the antenna.

                        that is correct. I use relays from around the accords body when I make my harnesses. as for the large one, you can find one similar behind the engine bay fuse box.
