Does anyone know where can I connect my foglights, so I can use them as DRL ( my car is US model, so it doesn't have this option ) , or at least they'll go off automaticly, when ignition/ilumination is off. I afraid If I'll plug them into my headlights it'll make them darker.

i am assuming your fog lights run through a relay, like most every set i've ever seen. the wire that turns on, or trips the relay can be wired into a wire that only has power through it with the key in the "on" position. you could wire it to the same wire that turns on your HU, or gives your cigarette plug power, but then if you key is in the accessory position the fog lights will be one.

Wire it the way Blue said but then put a switch between the power source and the relay, that way you can turn them on and off independently of the headlights but if you turn the key off they turn off as well. Turn the switch on and they'll work as DRLs, but you still have control in case you want everything off (for 007 missions or something).

actually I forgot to mantion, that they're on alrady and I have switch, which my gf likes to leave on , and then I have to boost the car anyway , I guess I should try to connect cigaret plug . Is there anything in the engine bay ? Just to make it easier, so I won't have to bring this wire through firewall.
