Then yours HAVE to be rewired. From the factory, they turn off with the high beams on.

NCSUPilot, you can rewire your foglights to be independent of your headlights entirely. There is a write-up available right here in the 4th gen section on how to rewire them.

Go to autozone or some place and buy new harnesses ($5 each). Also do the fog-light rewire. Everything else should work after that

Wasn't he talking about the high beams on with the fog lights? Not the parking and fog lights.

(sigh) because when you do the re-wire it allows the fogs to operate independent from the headlights..

Yeah once again...people need to know what they are talking about. The whole point of the fog re-wire is to make them idependent. That means they arn't connected to the headlights anymore and stay on all the time. I would take a picture of the fogs and high beams but it wouldnt come out...

its been answered at least 4 times in this thread. if you are unwilling to follow the input of and direction of other members or at least go find it yourself, then you should really stop trying to mod your car and just come here for the classifieds.

That would be completely wrong. You dont need any harnesses to do this mod. Don't post if you dont know what you're talking about. You'll just confuse people.
