I used my dremel to make a notch very carefully.

oh so I have no choice but to mod the fuse holder a bit so this will fit into the socket.. Hmm..
what if the relay itself was shaved so the wire would recess into it a bit allowing proper clearance? I was thinking of this also.. thanks for the reply. |

I've done this mod yesterday on my 2006 wagon (2.5i) and it's working perfectly !
I bent the leg on the relay (as shown in the above picture) soldered a wire to it and got an "add a fuse" and stuck it into the "illumination fuse" 10A. When I arm&disarm my car, the fog lights flash.. when I use my remote car starter, the fog's are on when the car's running. Works great ! although I did have to cut into my fuse box to make the relay slip back into its holder, but I'd prefer this than cutting my oem wires =) Thanks guys! |

So I guess 06 needs to trim fuse box to fit relay after relay spade leg is bent?

Will this work on an 03? the reason i ask is because the Schematic blow is just like the one in my FSM for a 03 same color wires the only thing different is the numbering/nameing of the plugs,
Front fog light Relay = [B48] on my FSM & on Zalthras Schematic Front fog light Relay = [B225] But its the same wiring Schematic any way i think i'm going to do it this way on my 03 i have looked over the Schematics & i see no reason that it will not work . i'l get back to you in a day or two & tell every one if it works Quote:

Yes it should work. If you want to be absolutely sure, you can pm me the schematic for your 2003 and I can tell you exactly what you need to do.

Yep.. check my post. Within this thread, you'll see someone using a "add a fuse" basically you remove your left knee panel under the dash, you'll need to get to your fuse box.
Remove the fog light relay (4th from the top?? anyone confirm? I can't remember), Then bend the leg (as show somewhere within this thread), solder a wire to that leg, then attach it to the add a fuse wire. Put the relay back in (I had to trim my fuse box to allow the relay to slip back into the holder). I personally put the 'add a fuse' into the illumination fuse (10A) and when I turn on my corners, the fogs turn on. To get the headlights to stop turning on when you release the hand brake, you need to disable the daytime driving relay (behind the glove box.. takes 5 seconds) So now I have control on my HID's while driving. I use my fogs as my daytimes, and I can turn on the headlights whenever I feel like it.. this saves many hours of use on those HID bulbs. hope this helps |

There is no blue wire in my picture, he's refering to the blue text, and blue line added into the schematic. Basically you ground the [Yellow/blue] wire to solve the foglight/highbeam switching.

electrical n00b here, so this basically lets you turn on and off the fog lights with the factory switch so you DON'T have to have the headlights on, correct?
Didn't really see a specific description of the mod in the first post... |

And if you run the the rea/green wire to a + 12 ACC you dont have to have the parking lights on to have fogs. |

SiFuSpEc- How did you do the rear fog? I thought that was only doable on the 02-03's?
