i have an xA w/factory foglights and id like to have them come on w/ the parking lights. has anyone changed theres? if not i have some ideas like re wireing somethings. so, if you have any ideas please bringem on.-ryan

 

i thought that they were wired from the factory to only come on when either the parking or headlights are on. i mean to keep them from coming on when all the lights are turned off.

 

mine only come on when the headlights are on. id like for them to be on when the parking lights are on. i could just re-wire the switch. has anyone done that?

 

ok, i took a look at the wiring dig. at work a few days ago and it was a no problem. just clip one wire and ground it. this is what i did: took you switch out and cut the wire on trem. 1. thats the red wire w/blue tracer. took that wire and put it to ground. there is a nice place for this on near the fuse box. with that done my foglights work w/ my parking lights and when i turn on my highbeams. there is one drawback to this, if i dont turn off the foglights when i get out the car thay stay on. ill post pics in a day or so.

 

here are some pics, sorry there not so good.

this is the switch. clip the red w/blue tracer and put to ground.

i used a yellow wire to the red w/blue.

yellow to ground

heres what it looks like, bad pic. i also have orange led bulbs for parking.

 

has anyone else done this? I just ordered the kit from trdsparks.com It's always good to hear if several other people have tried this with success so I wont mess mine up...lol

 

i always wanted fogs but i never got a chance, hopefully i will

 

They work well for seeing the lines on the road during wet rainy weather as well as fog. Just strange how it lights up the area in front of the bumper unless I need to adjust them, but they do what I want. See the edge of road and lines during rain/fog.

Now if I can just fine some amber bulbs for an h11 size.

 

i want fog lights. where can i get good ones that dont cost an arm and a leg?

 

just save up your money for the OEM fogs it's worth it in the end and its all plug and play

 

how hard is it to install fog lights? is there any write up it?

 

Pretty easy. Take a look, they're pdf files so it'll take a min for them to load...
