    Haha, all I've gotta do is move one wire around, thanks for the input, I read a post from someone saying that the efi relay powers up for a few minutes for a system check about every 4 hours.... Your truck would have to sit around for a long time for the fogs to drain your battery that way. Ill probably just go ahead and use the efi relay, or maybe use the add a circuit on the efi fuse like somebody posted earlier. Thanks again. :)

    Not sure if anyone posted this yet but I went to the hardware store and picked up a "piggy back terminal" to use for the bent leg portion. It was uninsulated so I just used heat shrink. Cut off the female portion of the terminal and bent the leg down. Gave more working room and the large relay sits flush.

    I just went to the hardware store and looked in their little electrical assortment drawers. Or Google piggyback terminal or something like that

    No idea, but id imagine wiring is very similar. If you have a fog light relay you can really grab switched 12v power from anywhere and accomplish the same thing.

    Alright. So I wasn't able to find the piggy back ones at a local place. But I was able to find some online. But it was a few dollars so if anyone is looking for on or a few. I'll do 10 for a buck and send them in an envelope. Just let me know. I have quick pay and PayPal
