Fog Light Re-Wire

Has anyone thought about doing this? http://www.shiftice.com/fog_rewire.html ik that it must be possible to do jw if anyone has tried or is willing do to it to see if it works. Of course the wires wont be the same but it should be interesting.

Is there a particular reason as to why everyone wants to do this? I am not a huge fan of fog lights whether for looks or for the visual aid. I am just curious because this seems to be a very popular mod.

Awesome any chance that you can get them to draw up a how to diagram possibly or see if they are using basically the same as the link that I posted above? Can't wait to see some pix.

Well idk about other ppl but for me I think that it gives the car alittle more of an aggressive look during the day when you have the fogs on with the parking lights and to me it looks good during the day. Ppl always want something the don't have, lol.

How much they charge you for it?

Are you able to still use the on/off option on the stalk to shut the power off of do they only go on when the parking lights are on?

EX. (Just in case thats confessing cause it is alittle to me, lol.) If you want just the parking lights on are you able to turn the on and still be able to shut the fogs off using the fog switch on the stalk?

well i got hid fog lights from them as well so everything was 175

As far as your question, i cannot shut the fog lights off when the parking lights are on. So in other words even when my headlights are on the fogs do not go off. Thats the only thing i dont like about doing it that way, but yeaa they do look good when the parking lights are on
