CN - he "thinks" his brother wired them to the parking lights - LOL
anyone know how to safely wire these up to work w/high beams & maybe make it easy (for inspection) to switch to legal (low beam only) wiring. If I wire into my parking lights should I replace a fuse (get a bigger one)?
BTW I will be using OEM CTR headlamps so instead of wiring into parking lights I would need to the city lights (same wire)? do city lights stay on w/low & high beams? I will be trying to run h4 hy-low hids with h3 hids in the OEM fogs

Re: How do I wire my OEM fogs to stay on with highbeams (adirondackR)
anyone -
for the city lights - should I just splice into the corner lights (wire for parking light function) - I want the city light just to turn on when parking lights are on by themselves (headlight switch is turned one click) but not when headlamps are on - is it possible, do i need a relay?
for the fogs - should I splice into the corner lights (splice the wire for parking light function) I want to use fogs when parking lights are on as well as low & high beams. does anyone know what color wire goes to the parking lights to function when headlights are on????
- I know the green wire going to the corner lights is for turn signal
EDIT - answer wire both into parking lights see here on what wires to splice into https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=560847
ummm...can these 'lil wires handle all the power drawing through them - I'll find out

haha, stupid me.
anyways. your best bet would be to tap into your parking lights. im not sure if you should tap your fogs into that also tho. maybe find another constant power, or just add a switch.
