are you wanting to mod the headlight switch so you can have the fogs on with the parks? Your post is a little unclear for me?????

That sounds like cool shtuff. Dad's 2004 does that and its great for in the campgrounds at night so you aren't blinding anyone. There's a mod for the 2000?

Now that you mention it, I would love to do that to my '01 light switch if there is a mod for it.

Apparently if you pop the switch out (without breaking off the tabs preferably) you just grab a dremel and grind the ramp that prevents the fogs only on, then the switch will then work for fogs only. THEN... the dreaded then... jumper from the markers/parking lamps to the fogs to draw power. (Some info I found said that fogs draw power from driving lamps ((factory setup)).)
