SIR foglight switch working all the time...

Need help trying to have my foglight switch on my SIR active all the time.

OEM the car only can have the foglights turned on only when the

headlights are on. I want to have the fogs running on there own without

having the headlights on. Meaning I can switch them on whenever I

want.... Thanks.... sorry if this is a repost.. looked and

searched but nobody has a straight answer.

Hmmm, I've got aftermarkets in mine and I can turn them on/off as needed.

I would assume you need to disconnect the power supply from the fuse box and instead attach it to your battery, with a relay. Don;t quote me on this one, but I'm pretty sure that's how mine work. Thus they have power all the time from the battery yet wont remain on if the key isn't in the ignition.

What you need to do, are:
1. Get a wiring diagram and figure out which wire is the trigger wire sending signal when lights are on.

2. Cut that wire and feed in another line. When I did this on my old integra I used something that was only on when key was turned to acc I and on. If I recall correctly it was cigarette lighter.
