If it'* foggy out, DON'T USE YOUR HIGH BEAMS! This mod is for NON-foggy nights

All this will do is ALLOW the fogs to stay on with the high beams.......you still have common sense, a choice, and the ability to 'de-bright' any time you want.

With my setup my driving lamps are always hot so I can run my driving lights and my high beams at once... can we say bright?

For those with factory wiring on the fogs, this is possible. At least for 92/93 for sure, probably all the way up to 99.

What I need to know from the different years is this (other than 92/93):

1. Do you have the 'flip down' fuse panel?

2. When you flip it down, do you see a black box mounted above where it sits when retracted?

3. Does that black box have 2 connectors on it? One looks like the ICM connector with a nut to remove it, and the other is VERY hard to see. It'* butted up against the inside of the lower dash. It should be blue.

Neither my 1994 or 1999 have the flip-down panels. :(

Sorry guys, been really busy, and just got my home pc up and running again. I've been driving around for a week with my driver'* hushpanel removed to get to the wire. I'll take a crack at it in the morning
