Default hello, can i solder the jdm front foglights into the standard headlights?

can anyone tell me if i can solder the foglight wires to the standard headlights so when i turn on the headlights the foglights will be on also?
ideas anyone how will that look i dont know if having foglights on with my normal lights every night will look good or if it is even legal to always run with foglights + normal lights at night since they will be solder/splice with the headlights

do you think fogs look good like that though? i mean when its only on w/ just headlights and the sides.

Oh, i would also like to know how to have the side markers lit up while driving and for them to blink brighter then when they are lit up like the rear and front blinkers. Lit up but brighter when they blink so people will know thnky ou

nvm picture works, that is nice!

hmm would most ppl perfer that or perfer fog switched

I mean my DA had a switch for fogs but the DB does not. I would like a switch but this way works fine for me. I like the HIDs on.
I dont like the sidemarkers lit all the time because they have a tendency to melt the plastic. they weren't designed to be on all the time, only to blink.

you serious? melted side markers is something i am not looking forward to

i'll start soldering the fog wires to the headlights tomorrow. what about your one piece side markers? arn't they usually on when the headlights are on? thanks for helping

I have those run to the blinkers that were in the bumper. so they aren't on all the time, they only blink. I didn't see the need to have them on all the time and they could replace the bumper lenses that JDM front don't have. IT was very easy to wire these up.
