Question: is it possible to connect up foglights with the parking lights - thus when switching on the lights, they'll come with 'em?

Code: Select all
wire to side light-------------------------------------------------------- bulb
then you tap into it |
and then you run the tapped wire to a switch |
then the wire after the switch to a relay |RELAY|
then wire the relay as normal using your new wire as the switched feed
EDIT ok then that went realy badly ill try and remember to do another tomorow
