I am curious if anyone has done this procedure with these instructions before I start cutting wires??? See link!

That's pretty much the definitive write-up for that mod.

 

Just making sure, thanks!

 

Yea many people here have done that mod...it's from a legit guy

 

Thats the writeup that I followed... No problems at all!

 

yup did it.. those tabs can be a PITA at first though lol...make sure u get the quick splice connectors from radio shack,.. makes the job even easier

 

Will do, thanks guys!

 

easiest mod you could do....BUT TECHNICALLY NOT STREET LEGAL

but who cares.........go for it bro

NICE KOOL MOD if i dont say so myself

 

Neither are the ways I drive my cars!

 

Why wouldnt it be street legal? Chrysler vehicles can drive with the fogs on, without the headlights on... All from the factory

 

worked great. legit write up

 

m sorry I incorrectly made my statement.....

1) Its illegal to drive around at night with just the runners on WITH THE FOGS

2) its illegal to have the high beams operate the fogs NOT cut off

I COULD HAVE edited my post but i figured id just clarify it, lol... (see what multitasking got me)

 

Thanks for all the replies. It would have only taken me about 15 minutes, but had to go in and make hot chocolate cuz we are not used to 40 degree weather in South Alabama. Plus that cover was a real bi***!

 

I followed those same instructions. Everything came out fine.

 

+1. That's the write-up I used. Works flawlessly.

 

most popular 5th gen mod

 

I love it. The car looks so sexy with just the fogs.

 

I was not aware that this mod would prevent the foglights from turning off when the high beams are on. Oh well!

I had no interest in this mod on my 2002 previously, but now that I will be going with 3000k HID fog lamps, I plan to do it.

 

it doesnt

 

This mod won't affect that. That feature/function is built into the headlight switch assembly.


Edit: Beat to it.

 

go for it man it is confirmed

 

Who? Me?



I actually haven't even considered this mod... maybe when I'm bored and snowed in this winter.

 

go for it,.. funny thing is,.. i hardly ever use it,.. and just drive with my fogs and lights on...

 

i use it when its raining but not dark...at dusk...and when i enter the gate on base at night when i dim my headlights

 

lol, nah what i was saying was that when you flick on the high beams the fogs will shut off.....and with HID's in your fogs, thats not good for the life expectency of HID bulbs

other than that its a damn good mod

 

yea ive gotten to that point also, lol.......I know when i do use it, its around DUSK, right when the sun is setting and it doesnt warrant having the headlights on because there is still JUST enough light out

 

Im doing this mod this weekend

 

Any suggestions or tips to help with the tabs? I got so pissed I never got to the wires.

 

I got a buddy to help pry up the tabs near the fender while I pulled up on the case. It takes some wiggling because it wants to stick in there with all the dirt and grime that has built up. Give it another shot!

 

 

i just used a small FLAT head screw driver.....

 

so are you just using a splice to connect the fog wire to the taillight wire? if so.. Can you just use one of those little connectors?

 

 

Getting the tabs next to the fender was the part that took the longest.I used one of those tiny screwdrivers that are used on glasses.

 

^^ A little low on PS fluid?

 

Is it?

 

looks like it.. i think, might wanna check it to be sure

 

Cool thanks.

 

looks good!

 

I'm going to do this, thanks for the write up.
