Right now my headlites roll up on the fisrt click of my pulling on the knob (easy there). I would much rather the first clik be just running lites and fog/drivers if I so choose.
Can this be done on a 1970 or do I need a full rewire of the liting circuit?

I also have no power to the fog lites. I installed a Jwest flash module (good stuff!) and the switch lites up, but no flashy and no litey at the devices. I did test the lites them selves and they work...

The car came with both fogs busted so I sorta screwed up and installed the flash before verifing that the damned circuit was good! yeah yeah, get a baseline check the physical layer, Dino you should know better, yadda yadda yadda

In many states it's illegal to drive in the daytime with your running lights on without headlights. It's pretty easy to pull the switches, figure out which wire comes from your foglight switch to the headlight switch, move it, with a post doubler, to the constant hot post on your headlight switch. Then your foglights become daytime driving lights, seperate from the headlights.
