If you rewired the fogs using the instructions in the How to's - you shouldn't even need a fuse. What fuse are you blowing, one you added or a stock one?

Describe what you did. You shouldn't need a fuse, but I added an inline fuse to be safe. So far, I haven't blown any. However, I wired mine to the running lamp bulb that is also the turn signal in the headlamp housing. I deactivated my running lamps(piece of tape over one of the two knubs), so it only flashes. Therefore, there is no load except the fog lamp relay, which is not very much and shouldn't need a higher wattage fuse.
