Default Fog light wiring questions

So i have a 96 where the fogs are a part of theheadlights. Picked up some fogs to install and dont want any new swithces int eh car so it will all look nice n stock.

figure thats a good way to use the fog switch that I have.

but i want them to be on when I hit the high beams so:

can i just tap into the curent fog light power cables and run the new ones off that also?? Im assuming a different fuse will be needed. any ideas??

thanx for any help or ideas

Default SEARCH ...also look for my post ,I wired an extra fog switch and did driving lamps

My lamps are powered off the park lamps circuit ,switch lighting power from a tap to the rear fog switch,and its nice to have the extra light length on highway. I know its illegal but I can switch them on anytime with the parking lamps so I can run them without headlamps.

Default Do you still have the stock headlights?

I highly suggets you upgrade to ecodes, even though the supply and demand is high.

Matter of fact.... I know you are on the PNW forum, STG II S4 just upgraded to ecodes on his B5, you should ask him if he will sell his stock S4 headlights. They will look MUCH better than the lights you already have on, very easy install also. do it.
