Alright, i did want to ask you something as i noticed this. In the mysterious 4th slot, there are no wires. Is there a way to use that empty slot to wire the fogs up that way?

It doesnt have any terminals inside, it's all plastic. You wouldnt want to use that kind of relay anways. A simple SPST threw is like 4 bucks at an auto parts store.

If you are worried about a relay, check out the how-to section for the relay diagrams and pin locations.

Thanks. It'll be the first time i wire up something like this. You had to run a wire from the yellow HL switch to the box, right? Sorry if i sound like an idiot, but im a bit of a rookie at this stuff...

If you want your fogs to flash, then yes. Run a wire from the yellow HL switch wire to (the brown wire on the parking lamp flasher relay). I suggest using a diode.

I did something where i got it lit, but not using the HL switch. I need to, but havent yet. A guy messed with the radio harness and left two wires for the power and ground. A stupid way, but it works. Eventually I will do it the right way. But until then, it will always light as long as there is power to the radio.
