Fogs Direct To Headlights???

will this cause a problem?? 2 months ago they broke into my baby and took my cds,stereo etcc.,these idiots thought my fog lights swithch was an alarm so they ripped it out since it stayed lit after the car was shut off. i tried new switches but they just wouldnt work so i ran the fogs straight to the head lights,,,will this hurt my battery

Sounds like you spliced the fog lamp wires in parallel with your headlights correct? If so, then no current is being drawn until your lights are on and if you did it in parallel, then you should be fine. Someone else correct me in case I'm wrong.

Depends upon how he did it. Some part of the circuit could be overloaded. Are you talking about the stock fog lights? Did you do you splicing at the dash or in the engine compartment?
