I rewired my fogs and front corners according to the excellent instructions by RussMaxManiac.
I became envious of a VW I saw a couple days ago that had its corners blinking with the turn signal. That forced me to take a trip to Radio Shack for some supplies.
My rewiring was slightly different in that I ran the foglight wire out the rear of the relay box instead of drilling a new hole, and instead of 3M Tap-Ins, I used the Archer brand from Radio Shack, which taps into both wires so I didn't need male terminals.

I don't think your mom and dad would appreciate you tampering with his electrical system either.

I'm a mechanical engineer, so that helps. You don't even have to know how or why this rewiring mod works, but it would beneficial to learn. The hardest part was opening the !@#$&*# relay box, and doing the driver side corner without moving the battery or fuse box. Care should be taken when crimping and wrapping everything with electrical tape.
