Default Foglight re-wiring on DC5 RSX type S

Hey guys and gals I just bought a '02 DC5 and I want to re-wire my fogs so I can run them with the park lights on or maybe get power straight from the ignition. I saw on clubrsx that if you wire them into the park lights your highbeam indicator light stops working on the cluster which mean you could ride with highbeams on and not even know. I'm really not the wiring genius but I know it can be done. Any help or diy would be great. The more pics the better, I'm a little slow. Thanks

fog lights are generally wired up like this:


That is for a 92-95 Civic..

Even tho you have an RSX.. the fuse box should have an output or a fuse you can tap into for the dash lights...

tap into that, and use that to power a relay that turns on and off your fog lights.. all with new wiring...

then just rewire your fogs directly to the relay.. and then to the battery

If you wire it up Bat->fuse->relay->fog lights then your fog lights will turn on with your parking lights.. although you will not be able to control them with the foglight switch..

its better anyway to rewire your lights... that way if you want, you can run higher wattage lights.
