Anyone do this mod yet?
Or if not, can anyone post the relevant schematics so I can quickly figure out where to wire a diode to energize the relay? Or maybe it is not an easy mod if the fogs are driven with a body computer?

I like the wide spread of light the fogs generate close in. Silly maybe, but that's just me.

Anyone have access to schematic for the LED fogs?

All Lighting is controlled by the Smart junction Box. You cannot just add additional wiring and make it work. Also running fogs with the high beams is illegal.

Thanks.
I still think it possible, and far as legality, they are pretty pusillanimous fog lights, not too worried. Certainly nothing compared to the wankers running HID's in reflector capsules.

Just use a relay triggered by the high beams that gives power to the fogs when the high beams are on. Not sure if this is possible with the wiring but done it a zillion times.

Right, the question is, does back feeding the SJB cause any issues?

Diode it up, don't have to worry about that then. You know what you're doing.

I do. (more or less)
There would be a .7 volt drop across the diode though, possibly decreasing the brightness of the fogs.

Fogs are LED. Doubtful they use enough power for that to make a difference.
