I think it would be sorta neat to wire my fog lights (which i never use) to act as turn signals, and put amber bulbs in them. Maybe the Escalade harness will allow this if I buy one to put on the Tahoe.

And then, for the turn signals in the headlight assembly, I'd just put white bulbs in those and wire them to run with the DRL's.

Or, as another idea, move the DRL's to the fogs and make the former DRL's amber and run with the turn signals.

It sounds possible, what do you guys think? I might do a bit of photo-shopping to help get a good idea of it.

Here is the photshopped picture of the first idea.

And the second. I cropped it because it wouldn't edit the left side for some reason.

BTW idk who's tahoe that is but if you're reading this I hope you don't mind me using it, lol. It was a very good picture of a Tahoe with the DRL's on.

It sounds possible, if I could just find some amber fogs. Just extend the wire from the turn signals down to it, and then split the DRL wires over to the old turn signals. That way everything turns on when it's supposed to, and then all I would need are the right color bulbs.

I like the Mercedes thing where the left or right fog light turns on depending what direction the steering wheel is turned.

That sounds cool but I don't see a point to it.
