Default Foglights on with high beams
I searched the forum and couldn't find anything. I thought there was a write up though. Anyone remember or know how to do this?

Are you willing to cut the wires? You will have to add in a relay!

why would you want to have you Fogs on with your high beams, doesn't that defeat the purpose

The whole reason i got fogs is cuz high beams in the fog, rain and heavy snow are some what blinding. Is there perhaps an advantage I don't know about with both on.

Please tell me if I'm missing something!

A lot of people want the foreground lighting when they have the highbeam on.

Yep that is it. plenty of far off light with headlights and windshield lights nothing covering the foreground.

But do the high beams weaken the fogs output at all?
