Default Fog light wiring?

Just orderd some square fogs for my ek. I got the ones of passwordjdm, i think their depo. However I am wondering how to wire them so that I could turn them on all the time not just with the low beams?

you just pick one of the accessory ports that is not low-beam dependent.

#1 is hot all the time. So you can have your fogs on without your car being on.

I suggest sticking it into #3 or #4, so when your key is in those positions, the fogs will work.

You know what? The Depo kit is indepedent on the headlight switch, meaning you don't need your parking lights or headlights for them to work.

I wired Depos to my friend's car and he could turn them on whenever he wanted.

If you stick them in #1, you run the risk of draining your battery if left on (and forgotten).
