fog light wiring idea

[CClements]

My truck did not come with fog lights but like many others all the wiring and relays seem to be in place. I want the fog lights to turn on whenever my lights are on. Can I just forgo the switch and jump the relay off the park lights?



Thanks

yes

An added bonus of doing it that way is that they should stay on with the hi beams on.

About fog lights,be aware some don't like being blinded by the extra light coming at them. If you want to light up the road we can help with more lights. [high intensity beam]. Besides fog lights

work best close to the ground,under the fog.

who's we?

The fogs are even lower in the pattern than the low beams are so I doubt they could blind anyone. Another way to do it is to purchase a new headlight switch from dodge for $70. It will have the extra wire you need for the fogs.

Hi-Beams and fog lites

Be aware, D. O. T. has a law that is universal about fog light control. Fog lights can be used only with low beams, not high. Just a heads up so you don't get a ticket.

If you run in a lot of fog....

Covering the "bottom" half of the low beams (because that is the portion of the light that gets reflected up) improves your visibility.
