    I noticed tonight that my fog lights only work when the headlights are on. Aren't they supposed to be on when the marker lights are on as well?

    no they only work when your low beams are on. if you want them to be able to turn them on all the time look in the mods section for fog light mod.

    Hey, Packer. I did the "Fog light mod" and it is as everyone says. Works Perfectly! If you need the parts for it, or need any help, let me know. :)

    all you need to do is get a small piece of 16 guage wire, put a female spade end on it, pull the relay, bend tab, put wire on the bent tab, plug relay back in, then use a splicer to hook the wire from the relay to the green wire. the drill bit is just to make a small hole for the wire to go thru to hide it and to keep the lid from pinching it. its real easy man.

    you want me to send you the piece of wire already made for it, then all you gotta do is pull and bend the relay,plug wire in and splice onto the green wire.
