    this question goes out to the truly talented electronic wiring minded guys on here(no offence to the rest of us). I have an SR dcsb, so it didn't come with fog lights, but thanks to @TacoJoy418, I now have a set of factory fogs. so since I don't have a factory wiring harness I wanted to ask if I could splice into my low beam wires to power the fogs, so that when I turn on headlights, the fogs would come on and would go off when I use high beams just like the factory versions. in other words no switch install in the cab. my "switch" would be the blinker/headlight stalk. I assume the headlights run off a relay and I didnt want to overload said relay, (or would it?),so could I put a relay inline on the fogs to prevent overload. wanting to install OPT7 fluxbeam LEDs in lows and fogs, if this helps to configure amp draw. I hope this makes since to anyone reading. any insight and or wiring diagrams would be greatly appreciated.

    Keep it separate (power source for lamps)
