So I'm going to be wiring up my fogs soon and what I'm planning to do is just reroute the wires to the sidemarker and send those straight to the fog lights and to splice in the sidemarkers to the turn signal's wires so they'll both blink.
Basically what I'm worried about is: Is this feasible? Will I be blowing fuses? Any input is appreciated. This post has been edited by HectortheRican: Aug 8, 2012 - 6:43 PM -------------------- taking too long to mod since '09

the sidemarkers electrical is only meant to run those 194 dinky bulbs so its made to match that minor requirement, running fog lights are 55watts thats a very big difference for that electrical to handle. it may work but for how long and what problems will it cause for you later. its very simple to just run your own wiring. Electrical is very expensive or hard to troubleshoot, I would avoid what you plan to do. electrical is built specifically to handle certain things thats why there is amperage, wattage, wire gauges, relays, fuses, breakers, etc.......you can't just do anything you want.
