Fog Lights Rewired PICS UP

I tried the dealerships, stereo shops, etc... Nobody wanted to touch it. The dealership said "Yeah, it's easy to do. We can do it but its illegal to run fogs with the highbeams so we won't." WTF?? Well I said screw it and did it myself. I went to Auto Zone and picked a universal fog light wiring kit and went at it. Much easier than I expected. I basically went straight into the 2 wires that come out of the fog light, ran a power wire with inline fuse, bypassed the factory relays and whatever else by pulling the fog fuse (factory) so that even if the swith (factory) was turned on there was no power running to it. It looks GREAT!! I took a few pics for now, theres 7 inches of snow out right now so decent pics are gonna have to wait. Enjoy.





With parking lights...

how are you controlling them? with a switch from A.Z. ? would there be a way to control it with the factory stalk?

NewB here.

I have always wanted to rewire the fog lights. But am afraid to touch the wiring without any help.

A write-up will be much appreciated.

Nice grille.

Has anyone put in the T-Rex upper class grille from Stillen?

If so how does it fit? I saw the pics on Stillens web page, but I have heard they don't always fit to weel.

Please advise.
