there is no best way.
You can wire it to a seperated switch or... ***correct me if i am wrong*** take the steering column off of a celi that came from the factory with fog lights and therefore has it wired. I am not sure if those come factory wired to turn on with the Low's or if you have to pull on the knob to get them to turn on seperately. -------------------- 1 JL 1,000/1v2

you have to get the turn signal switch with the fog or run it direct to a switch. I ran mine direct but I do have a fuse still. There is a sticky that martin did.

i just wired them to my excisting headlight wires. you get a ticket if you have them on if your headlights arent on anyway. Ground them seperatly and take the hot wire from one of your headlights and them put a bigger fuse in for the headlights and your good to go. message me back if you have any questions.

Wow,
You guys did complicated work. I wired mine into my running lights. If you turn the column once (just driving lights, no headlights) you'll get fogs, 2 turns forward will be fogs with lows, then push the whole column forward to fogs, lows, and highs. Just use a millimeter to be sure which wires to splice into. There's 3 total, and they change colors for left and right. I think it was the left and center wire, but double check with a millimeter to be absolutely sure. -TC -------------------- Live your life for yourself. Don't hold back for anything or anyone.
