JWest Engineering sells a little fog light flash harness. This is apparently for 4-cylinder cars only. Can something like this be done for sixes?

Thx,

/6's are wired to flash driving lights with the high beams but AFAIK only Euro cars got driving lights. So there's a couple of options.

Probably the easiest would be to move the 'flash' lead from the lever off the 'high beam' input to the stock relay and move it to the 'low beam' input. That'd flash the low beams (and therefore the fogs if they're switched on) but since they're retracted anyway - no matter...

In fact, what I recall is that that's the way US cars worked -anyway- out of the box. You do have to have the fog light switch pulled out to enable them, tho.

So try that first - it may already work the way you want - which is why there's isn't a separate relay for the /6 - the factory already put it there...
