Fog lights on with just DRL's

[NecroFIesh]

Anyone have an idea about how to get the foglamps to illuminate with just the parking lights on? I love the look of just the white LED DRL's on but want to add the fog lights as well. To my knowledge, and the design of the lighting switch/stalk - the fog lights are only accessible with the low beams on. They turn off when the high beams are activated. But, anyone have any insight on how to just have the parking lights and fog lights on? I remember having to wire the fog lights up a certain way back in the day with my RSX but that car had an independent switch separate from the lighting stalk.

I’d be interested in doing this to my car as well

Connect 2 add a circuits together pull the daytime running lights and foglight fuses, plug one into the DRL fuseholder, plug the other end *backwards* into the foglight fuse holder, put the headlight fuse in the main socket on the add a fuse plugged into the headlight circuit, plug the foglight fuse into the secondary on the headlight circuit, then plug a fuse shaped diode into the primary on the add a fuse (arrow towards Battery voltage) on the foglight circuit to block voltage and not get a dashlight warning.
Fogs will come on whenever there's power to the DRL circuit.

-Or- cut your Foglight harnesses positives and run wire to a toggle switch which connects the live end off the cut harness for one way, and the positive on the DRL circut the other way. Install switch in car, and have the choice of stock or fogs that come on with DRL. May cause CanBus to cry about the fogs being burnt out.

though it seems like a lot, it's not that difficult. add a circuits are amazing. Used for added accessories on my previous car: amplifier, usb ports, radar detector.

I'm going to try the DRL tinted overlay in orange/Amber & see how it looks.
