headlight question, need help.
I was reading posts about the headlight buzzers and I asked about a foglight buzzer. and someone ask why I would need one since he figured my fog light were wired to my head lights.
so why not do this ? if I can get rid my of extra switch let's go for it.
so my question is: how can I wire my fog lights so they turn on/off when my head lights are on/off ? just tell me where to splice.

Re: headlight question, need help. (freezing-acid)
My fogs have a switch, but my "driving" lights have to be on in order for the fogs to be on. That way i can still control them if i want them on or off, and i don't ever forget to turn them off.

you can either splice into your parking lights in two places.....1) right where they meet the corner light on your bumper, or 2) inside the car, either directly into the fuse, or into the switch on your steering column......good luck

Why don't you just hook the power wire for the fogs into the hot wire on your headlights and then ground the fogs at the nearest location (probably the headlight ground wire)? This isn't a difficult situation. It should take about ten minutes if you know which headlight wire is which (testlight much).
Putting the foglight power wire on the headlight's trigger/power wire will just make them turn on with the headlights.

find which wire is the hot wire. theres only 2 going to the headlights, right? or are there 3?
i konw there is ground ( black ) and by default, the other one is power, but i don't know if there is a wire for the highbeam...i never really checked...but i dont think there is.
