Finished fog rewire mod

I think it looks sexy....so I took a picture.

This was pretty simple and I definatly think it was worth doing.

What would they have to be wired to in order to be independent of anything else?

The fogs are silverstars, and the corner lights are those blue colored ricer bulbs that light up a pretty white. (dont flame, I got it all for free)

I took the bulbs out of them about a year ago. I thought they looked ridiculous with everything matching and those being the oddball. Dont worry they still work perfectly, not only that but there is plenty of lights on the sides, you can see me clearly without those ugly extra lights.

Off where? Are you talking about the fusebox dealy? I know it took me a good amount of time to get the thing seperated. Other than that I had no problems at all.

Yea you gain full control over the fogs. Visibility is much improved when turning the brights on as well because you can still see the road directly in front of you as well as whats in the distance.
