Extra Fog Light Wiring..?

Hey guys..

Just a simple question.. Is it easy to wire up those auxiliary fog-lights to a car? How about to a Cobalt? Not those big tacky 4x4 ones with the smilies on them (lol) but just some nice thin ones.. They're between $20 and $30 usualy for everything, wiring and a toggle switch included.. Anyone have any info or how-to's? Instructions are included, but I'd rather know ahead of time.. Don't ask what they're being used for, I'll show you when I'm done.. lol.

yea easy to do
be careful you get what you pay for, some don't use sealed connectors, which can allow water and salt in

Honestly, I was really surprised to find some water in my factory connectors.. lol.. Still work great though..?

If you wire up two pairs, could you just splice them both into one toggle switch instead of running two separate ones? No big deal if not, but one would be cleaner looking..

so long as they are the type with a relay, you could use 1 switch to trigger 2 relays

but I would not recommend using 2 sets of lights off 1 relay or though 1 switch (if the type without a relay)

any decent pair fog lights will have a relay anyway

I'm gonna be using them very sparingly, so I'm not too worried.. But I'll see what I come up with..
