    What does the lid of the little box say as far as the single relay thats in there? Is that the AC relay? if so you can grab the connection off that like in the OP and put the wire into the main relay box.

    If you pulled the connection off the DIM relay you would have foglights that could only turn on when headlights were on.

    Or you could pull the connection off the ignition relay (which is in the main box) like described in post 15 for more than likely a similar experience to pulling off the dc-ac relay.

    I believe the lid on the external box say's AC so I guess it's for the inverter. I think the only need is to have the fogs stay on when I flick to high beams. So I guess I'm good to go to go with the dimm source. Can't think of any reason to want the fogs on w/o headlights.
    Thanks for the help

    what do you think the OP did in the thread in my sig!

    its a fog light mod…. its not that hard! fuse or not fuse…

    "no fuse needed"? the fuse its not hurting, its very simple, MY method uses "ONE" in-line-fuse wire and yours DOESNT but it uses 5 wires insted of one…. and as far as i know, both methods are reversible

    Don't see the need to bent relay back, and if there is the need to so so I don't think it's going to break that easy...
