Best way to wire fogs?
I just got an ss bumper with hid fogs and my car did not originally come with fogs. What would be the best way to wire them up so they will come on when the headlights are on so I dont have to use a switch?

Ok cool. Do I need to splice the wires or if I have a spare headlight relay harness should I use the harness?

I used a relay in mine and used the headlight circuit for the trigger to turn them on.

Ok thanks. I'll be sure to try that if I can find a harness laying around

I made my own using spade connectors for the relay pins.

We make harness's for this situation. They allow the fogs to come on with the car and off with the car. Pnp!
