Can I splice my hella lights into my factory fog light wiring harness?

Plenty have tried. Very few have succeed. Install a new harness. Use the OE circuit to trigger the relay.

X2 on this. You could probably get by using a small led with the factory switch and wiring, but anything more get a new harness and relay, which most lights already come with.

I have mine triggered with the factory fog lights but also on a switch. Using a relay, I triggered the relay with my factory fog switch.
