    Thank you for your reply - both DRL and Fog Lights do work.

    Just got it!
    I used JiveWalkers method on my 2010 OR and it works as expecte.

    My only question is: the male connection that I stuff into the ignition port isn't very secure/tight. I can easily pull it out myself. Should I be concerned about this and is it a fire hazard if it were to somehow slip out while driving?

    The dividers within the box itself press on the wiring between the fog relay and the ignition area so that should hold it relatively in place, but wanted to ask the question.

    Thanks!

    Is it bad to tap into that green ignition wire twice with two sets of lights? I have my anytime fog mod, but just put in an LED bar i want powered only when the ignition is on. Would it overload that wire to have both sets of lights tapped in?

    Not to bring this back from the dead, but this method worked awesome for me. I used a connector from a left over 9004 HID harness that I had. Then zipped tied that wire to the other wires going into that harness to secure it in. Fogs lights work great, and I feel better about this method than the fuel pump relay method. Thanks!!

    This mod was so easy. I believe a fifth grader could do it........LOL
    All it took was wiring the fog light relay to the ignition wire. See the RED wire.

    Its very easy man. If your truck is year 05-11 just look at thread 23 from Crom and just follow that. It is just one wire you have to run from your fog light relay to the ignition wire, pin 3. If you can read a picture you can do this. I'm no wizard at electrical stuff, but this was easy, took 10 minutes to do. Here's the thread:

    Pop the fuse and bend the leg. ( It may take some gentle wriggling with the needle-nose pliers, and some heft to pull the fuse out. )

    Route and attach the wire using the quick splice
