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 |

HIDs pull more power upon warm up after that it settles down into the 35 watt range supposedly. As you have wired your fogs to your parking lights you are drawing too much power from that wire an extra 55 watts, I've seen people burn their harnesses and wiring all the way through just from extra wattage. If you understand electrical right fuses, amps, wiring gauge, wattage draw, etc., all have a meaning. Never do what is not suppose to be done, just because people have had for 6 months or whatever, this site is suppose to teach you how to do things right and legit for the most part, not rigging it. Just run seperate wiring and call it a day - simple as that. If your mindset is stuck in shortcutting and rigging, your car will not stay nice or last very long.
