Need help with fogs modification..., How to re-wire fogs...any help would do!!! Options

Hey guys,

I was about to put back on my fogs on the car when I thought, it would look nice if I could turn on the fogs with the parking lights alone. Is there any way I could re-wire the fogs to come on whenever I turn on the parking lights alone??? I thought that there would be a remote wire or something of the sort that turns it on, but not too sure. Right now, they can only come on when I turn the headlights on(factory setting). I also have the factory lights switch inside where you can turn on and off the fogs when the headlights are on too. People may have "How-to's" for this, but I have searched and haven't found anything about this yet. Please, if you can help me out it would be much appreciated.



Thanks, Ryan

I wouldn't wire up to the parking lights for power just because you want to use the relay for turning it on with the headlights. You will be pulling an extra 55watts on top of the parking light. You will pull too much power from your parking lights which it cannot handle and possibly burn your harness to the point where it becomes an electrical problem. That is the reason why fogs need to be run seperately or through its own relay. Ever wonder why accessories always have its own independant wiring, fuse, or relay? Because thats the way its suppose to be. However I could see it work if you only use the relay wire of parking light but DO NOT USE it also for power.
