okay just did the mod w/o the grounding for high beam b/c I wasn't concerned with that. Now the car chimes if the door is open and the fog light switch is on. Kind of cool. BTW I hooked it up the slot #22, but the fogs will still turn on without the parking lights on..
I think I want to be able to leave the fog light switch on all the time and it won't be powered unless I have the key in the car.. is that slot #24 or do I need to hook it up to the radio? This way I don't have to turn off the fog light switch every time I leave the car. Let me know guys, thanks!

I have my fogs which are HID on, when i have my parking light on, and can use it low or high beam, it's just a switch and if i turn off the keys it will swtich off.

I'd love to have my fog lights on all the time, independant of the other lights, but I'm just not ready to be cutting any wires in it yet.
#207
I forgot what number fuse slot it was. I hooked it up to the Radio fuse slot. So it turns on when the ignition is "on"
#208
Ok i have done a search on how to make my fog switch work seperate but i cant find any information. I was wondering if anyone can help me to figure out how to make my fog light switch work independently from my headlights.
any information would help .
Thank you.

post #175 should do the trick.

What is "it" that is being connected to the fuse box?
What do you do with the other end of the wire you cut in the beginning?
What is an "add-a-circuit"?
Does the high-beam light come on when the high beams are on?
Will this void the warranty?

you are connecting the switch side of the red/yel wire to the add-a-circuit and connecting the add-a-circuit to an unused fuse location that gets power only when the car is on.
The other end of the red/yel wire can be taped up. it is not needed. The fogs will not come on with the highbeams but can be turned on/off at any other time regardless of what other lights are on.
As for voiding your warranty, i have no idea.

So the fogs can only be on when the engine is on, right? But they can also be shut off? Is there an easy way so they can be on when the high beams are on too?
#214
I haven't done the Highbeam mod yet but I did do the low beam mod.
Lizard king, just go and get you that add-a-circuit and once you get things wired up, put the add-a-circuit where the radio fuse is. when you turn on your ignition, the radio turns on, and also your fogs. Yes you can turn it on or off at anytime.

just curious i did cut the red/yel wire on the 20 pins mod but not the steering mod, so i was asking if i do the steering mod do i reconect the 20 pins then do the steering mod?
#216
Question: Can i just do the steering wheel mod, without the fusebox mod? I just want to be able to turn on the fog light without turning on the lights. thanks.
#217
You are right but a couple more minute and ground that wire at the fuse box used add a ciruit for Canadian tire on the radio fuse and voila full control over your fog light. You want regret the full mod

Ok... so let me get this straight... by following leonine's writeup in this post and follow it up fully, i'll have what i want. I don't have to do anything in addition to that (i.e. the first 10 pages). correct?
