Default Help needed from people with 98-01 fogs

i installed my oem fogs awhile ago and i think they are way too bright! i think i may have wired them incorrectly, are they supposed to stay on or turn off when i turn on my high beams? Anyone else w/ the fogs think they are too bright?

i didnt think they were too bright. mine went off when the brights came on.
DO you def have OEM ones? the installation guide made it fool proof to install these.

You can't install them upside down.

OP: I have OEM fogs with yellow bulbs. If you installed them per OEM instructions, the lights will turn off when you turn on your high beams. I modified my harness to accept the JDM fog switch and turn on with my parking lights (and not turn off with high beams).

haha you should do it the jdm way..

wiring so when your key is in the ON ignition, it turns on and i can turn it off and on when ever i want.

could have all of your headlights runnin at 1 time..
