Wiring windshield lights to factory stalk?
I can't seem to find what I'm looking for useing the search function so I hope somebody can help.
I had the factory fog lights however switched out my bumper and no longer have the factory fogs wired. How do I wire everything so I can use the factory stalk to turn on my KC lights? Is this even possible?

that way you are using the factory foglight switch to trigger the relay, the relay routes power from the battery.
You cannot use the factory wiring to power the lights directly, they are to high of a wattage, and the computer will read an error and shut them down.
