Need to tap into front parking lights (1 Viewer)

[TOPOman]

I just installed fog lights in my lower grill. Now I need someone to tell me where I can access my front parking lights wiring without cutting open the harness. Can anyone help?

Thanks!!!

I would suggest going back to the fuse block, using an "add-a-fuse" to the existing fuse for the parking lights at a minimum. Doing it right would involve using a relay, switch and power source so that it is selectable. It will take a bit more work but well worth it in the long run...

I wasn't clear in my initial post, sorry. I am powering the fog lights via a relay (fused0 and the relay is switched. The power to the switch is fused and directly from the hot terminal in the engine bay fuse block. What I want is to have the switch active only when the ignition is on. Any help?

Thanks again,

Cool...I'd still go to the fuse block under the hood to use as the power to the relay from the DRL (daytime running lights) fuse. Its only on when the ignition is on and easy to run a wire to your relay (well, that depends on where you mounted the relay, right?) from the engine bay...
