Then where would you mount an extra bulb at? Seems like a lot of trouble, to keep DRL's.
I drive during the day with my HIDs on, as its quite a little car we drive, and its bad enough A-Holes dont see you... |

I chose to go with only a low beam H4, and turn my fogs into high's like Violin did. |

I don't know if anyone has figured that one out, but it wouldn't easy as it would involve fiddling inside the ECU.
Why not just run a line from a switched circuit to the fog lamps so they come on whenever the ignition is switched on? Use a blank circuit or trigger a relay from an existing circuit and run a wire (fused) from your battery. |

Okay so today I installed my hid kit and unplugged the relay switch like mentioned.... however it is also some how is connected to the fogs... so when I wanna use my full headlight system with fogs on too it will not work... in short dissableling the relay will cause your fogs not to work.
Is this true or is my case somthing speacial? BTW my fogs came with the car not aftermarket. Thanks in advance for your answers guys. -Rick |

On a side note... if your are using a single h4 bulp no high beam.. you can just put it to high beam during the day and you will have no lights on.. and at night just put it back to full lights on... of coarse that is with the relay plugged in. -Rick |

In theory, using "under-the-bumper" lights with high beams is illegal. I say "in theory" becasue very few cops even realise it until you tell them to look it up. Rally-style "on-top-of-the-bumper" spots are the legal high-beam auxiliaries. Theory (again) is that since high beams are worse for fog vision, then there is no reason to turn on the fogs with high beam. Above the bumper lights are MUCH more useful for high-beam driving anyway, since their height gives a better view ahead (less affected by small bumps in the road)
