Fog light wiring

Post by green02crew »

Is the stock fog light wiring good enough to run a set of auxiliary fogs? I want to be able to use the stock fog button to run another set of lights along with the stock ones. Just wondering if I can use the stock wiring or if I should run new wires and use a relay to activate the new fogs off of the old switch. The ones I'm looking to run will be two 55w fogs on my grille guard.

No.

Add a relay and separate power wire. I don't really think you only want them active when in the low beam position anyway, right?
If you do you can have them activate the relay.
