    I want my fog lights to stay on with my high beams because the crappy FleaBay lights are nowhere near bright enough without the fogs on.

    TIA.

    Do you have to change the wiring on the switch? Is it just so the light lights up when the fog lights are on? The light not being on doesn't really bother me is why I ask.

    No. My indicator lamp quit working long ago so I didn't bother.

    Yes, you can leave the switch alone if you don't mind the light not coming on.

    Is anyone aware of a a way to have hi-beams on with low beams plus fog lights? I have HID low beams but sometimes it would be nice to have high beams on also...its probably overkill, just thought I would ask. Sorry for the thread jack.

    It can be done, but don't do it. Too much heat and you will kill your bulbs. Besides, HID hi's make such a little difference that it wouldn't be worth it.

    Last time I checked in MA, it is illegal to have fogs and high-beams on. (Doesn't mean that people still don't do it...)

    Around here, the copper could write you up for a Vehicle Inspection, which costs around $120, and could lead to other problems with your vehicle that must be repaired before you pass the inspection.

    Pretty sure I have a better chance of winning the Powerball Lottery. LOL

    I have no idea what you're asking, but I guess it would be the same way they prove you run a stop sign or jaywalk. They observe you and write you up.

    I'm just trying to make the OP aware of a potential problem.

    I understand you are just making him aware of a potential problem but cops hate paperwork so the chances of them giving you trouble is slim. At least around my neck of the woods thats the case

    If you did get in trouble for whatever reason, disable mod and record a video of your lights in stock form and give it to the judge.

    Canada is extra anal about vehicle safety so you are kinda screwed.

    You guys are shot if you think cops really worry about your fog lights being on with your high beams smh. It's like my tint is illegal and my exhaust is loud as **** but that doesn't stop people from doing it.
