I just got my GT4 front bumper installed. The bumper came with the fog lights. I want to know if I can just tap my fog lights into the parking lights on the bumper? I noticed there are three wires there. Obviously for the blinker and the steady parking light. Can this be done? Would there be any problems doing this?

thanks for any advice.

i wouldn't do it because the H3 fog bulbs take 55watts, so you'll be drawing that much extra from the parking lights on a wire not meant to draw that much current. Its like a high wattage bulb on your low beams, same concept. its not meant to draw that much current. youll end up with electrical problems in the future as it starts to melt and burn the wiring.
