    true that, but some arnt 12v.
    but if you do run it that way, you want your fogs blinking with your corner lights?

    nope that is why you run it to the constant power for the running lights it is a three wire plue 1 wire for the ground 1 wire for the running and 1 wire for the blinker

    if they are from ebay then the wires are usually backwards! mine where when i got mine and it will burn the wires up check the plugs and see if the prongs are in the right location cause ebay sends them backwards

    If anyone located around me that knows how to wire them up to my running lights & bypass the Relay, send me a PM.... I need an extra hand so I don't mess anything up or cut a wire that doesn't need to be cut....

    I need them to work again.... I can't stand them not working....!

    also make sure the wires can handle the load when you hook it up, i have burnt wires before on lighting and have had a piaa relay go bad, but they sent me a new one for free(lifetime warranty), i may still have the old wiring for them which may help you out because its a better guage, let me look in my wire box to see i may be off I-20 at cascade road Weds morning.
    Check out my for sale threads!! 15" competition speakerbox, 1TB External hard drive, and plenty of car parts!!!

    I Need some WRX, 350Z, 240SX, Really any car owner to let me do R&D for Ground Kits, Please Let me See the layouts!!!

    Okay, after finding a new relay & plugging it up the foglights & still didn't work.... Harness more than likely was fried.... So then I just decided to cut the wire harness off (toss-it) and run each foglight to a chasis ground and power to the headlights power.... They are working like new again, FINALLY....

    Thanks to everyone giving me their input & advice....

    I'm going to run them to my running light eventually, for right now they work, so I'm satisfied with it....

    Speaking of which, what color wire on my corner lights do I run the fogs too...? I believe I've got a green, black & red wire, which one will I need to splice in too to have them wire to my running lights....?

    Seal the lens. But not around where the bulb goes. Keep water from getting in through the front. use a larger size of shrink wrap around the plugs so water doesnt get into there either

    INSIGHTFUL DIALOGUE ANALYSIS: Actually, Hector, that is not what we call valet parking. Valet parking is where someone parks your car for you. You just pulled your car up to the front of the store and got out. We just call that parking.
