The wires that you cut are shorting.

Check them again.

You need to solder the wires and make sure they are taped up well when you are done as they do not short together. Snypa, when you gonna let me do the rewire, it wont take more than 30minutes..

If you are in the Denver Colorado area I will get it done for ya. Did mine and my friends Maxima in about 10 minutes between both cars. Also in that time we did the bright clear corners mod, everything went smoothly and so far for both of our cars about 2 months later, everything still works great.

I actually like being able to control the fogs seperate. Plus you can have fogs on with highs. I know with 9004 you loose some of that visibility just in front of you...the fogs can "backfill". Plus headlights off, fogs on with city lights in my cefiros look hawt.
