I want to wire my rigid lights with my high beams but I don't want to cut into the OEM harness. I have a backup light harness from rigid

In that case you just need to splice the white wire in the backup kit to the high beam wire.

Ik I could just splice in but I don't want to cut up the OEM truck harness I was wondering if there was any other way to make it more OEM looking. Like a fuse tap or redo a plug to have an extra wire for the signal wire

My LED DRL tubes are wired into my factory harness and you wouldn't even be able to tell. just do a good job with it and take your time, its one wire.

Get male and female H13 ends, wire up a quick connect "splice" in between the harness and the light, then using the high beam wire to fire the relay of the rigids? Only need to put the jumper in on one side, so it'll be easy removal and you wouldn't even be able to tell it was there if/when you remove it.

That's what I'd do, but I'm kinda **** about clean installs.

Well I know for a fact you can fuse tap LED lights into the high beams in a GM truck 2007-2014, we got one at work with 2 done exactly that way. I'm sure it is just as easy in a Ford, but I never looked.

Look in the fuse box under the hood.

I too do not like hacking into wiring.

on our jeeps the fuse for the driving lights is a 3 prong fuse. we can cut one of the prongs off and it will allow the fog/driving lights to stay on when the high beams are on.

i was only able to do this by following directions, there is no way i'd figure that one out on my own, 'tricity and i don't get along, so i only do very simple, and i mean very simple, electrical projects.

anyone know if we can accomplish this, keeping the fogs on with the high beams, by a simple snip???
