Yes, they did plug right in with no taping or cutting anything. However, I'm not running them as fogs, I am running them as driving lights, so I need to modify the wiring so they'll come on with the high beams.

As I mentioned above, I'm not a fan of "piercing" modifications like Scotch-loks, so I'm not going with the Fleece unit.
Cut, solder and use heat shrink tubing with the type that has glue inside that seals/waterproofs with a heat gun. It’s the only way I do wiring on my rigs. I’m not taking any chances on water getting inside, I hate troubleshooting crappy wiring jobs that let water intrude. I’ve done a ton of electrical modifications over the years and mine have never failed.

Thanks for the suggestions, which happen to be the way I already do connections and terminations. :cheers:

I suppose I need to clarify further, as I'm talking about the schematics of the triggering circuitry, not the physical wiring itself.

I have my fogs setup as driving lights as well. I used bi-led projectors, so they work as normal fogs, but when I hit high beam, they turn on if off and activat high. I just tapped into the head headlight wiring right above it. high beam wire with a big diode inline.

saved all the finding relays and stuff. Just one wire down to the flapper solenoid and power wire.

That's a neat setup! For reference, what bi-LED projectors did you use?

it's been a few years. so sure there's better now. these were just priced well and water proof that I thought I could build mounts for.


very happy with the light output. but some of today's you can change from white to yellow for foggy nights. I'd probably try some of those if I was to do it now.


. maybe something from this place.
