Those cubes look great in there! quick (noob) questions for you on the topic of wiring.. did you just sauder the positive/negative into the factory fog lights? Also, do you use them only for off-road due to the glare they produce or are they okay enough for city use?

Mikey has his done up exactly like mine. These are ok to use as fogs while driving around as they really dont produce much glare. A flood pattern like mine does produce more "glare". I use mine mainly on back roads or off road.

You can use this relay, Auto Zone has them too.

You can just solder the wires together or butt connect then. I actually bought female 9140 plugs and butt connected them to the led cube wire and connected the that to the factory harness. This way if I ever have to take off my bumper I can just unplug them instead of cutting the wire. And I keep them on with my headlights all the time.

I'm looking into getting this relay. Does this replace an existing relay in my truck or does It have to be wired?
