(power to the fog in the first switch position). |

the fogs are powered off the low beam fuse. I use driving lights so I switched the leads to the high beam fuses.... I'd imaginge just find the fuse that's hot with the key on and you're good to go.

If you don't mind spending 25 bucks, the Jwest kit is really nice. Good instructions as well. I do like the flash to pass feature as well.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) That's those are the instructions I used. My fogs can be used with or w/o the headlights being on. Also if the fogs are on by themselves, pulling back on the turn signal stalk turns them off momentarily to "flash" other drivers. They will also turn off if the high beam headlights are engaged. Perfect for my needs.
