Default Fog Light Wiring .... Help?

I'm going to wire up four foglights on a roof rack for my car. The 12v VDC fused accessory socket I speak of are the male spade sockets on the in-car fusebox of a 97 Honda Civic. Here's the diagram I've got proposed. Will this work?



Please correct any mistakes I may have made.

Also, I have a stock (90a) alternator. The draw of each of these lamps are 4.6a, so it's assumable that they'd (all four) draw about 18.4a. Will this be an issue with everything else running (ie. headlights, stock foglamps, stock radio, 4 speakers, etc)?

I don't know how your lights are going to light up since both positive and negative wires are wired to the 87 terminal of the relay which should be positive.
you are missing a ground to the light bulbs.

why are you wiring both relays as parallel on 85? that doesn't make much sense. And as the guy above me said, you need a ground. The neg goes to #30
85-86 will go to your switch and polarity is irrelevant with it.

Yeah, I realized the problem way before any replies. This setup is being scrapped and replaced with just a standard 2-light setup. Thanks for the replies guys.
