Switch DRL's from Low Beam to Fog Lights?
Hey there, i was just wondering if there is anyone out there that has switched their DRL's from the low beam to the fog lights? I have recently just installed an HID headlight upgrade and prefer not to have them on during the day while i drive around, so instead id like to have the fogs come on as the DRL's. I think i have an idea of how to do this but if there is anyone that can give me some pointers for when i go to do this that would be greatly appreciated.

I'd be careful you use stock bulbs to prevent burning out the housings. You should be able to pull the DRL power before the DRL resistor (by the front bumper) and run it straight to the fogs.

I never had an issue with burning my housing. Ran my fogs for 36 continuous hours on a road trip once, with no issues. I swear, it seems my HID fogs get hotter than stock....it started to worry me for a bit, but have no issues yet.

I think most of the melting issues were with hotter halogen bulbs (H10s IIRC)
