who has the fog light mod?

Just out of curiousity. It makes the car stand out so much more when you want the 'pimp' status

Re: who has the fog light mod?

you mean that you have the fogs wired to the parkingl lights?

I had it done before i got in my accident. Looks really badass. Had to upgrade the fuse to the park lights though

Re: who has the fog light mod?

you can run a relay and not worry about the increased current draw. Once the parking lights are turned on the 12 volt signal will tell the relay to turn the foglights on. Relays are about $5

Re: who has the fog light mod?

I wouldn't call it pimp, but I've enjoyed the foglight mod for a few years now.

Re: who has the fog light mod?

You put the fog light relay wire on the parking brake wire off the switch instead of the headlight wire. SImple as that. That way, your car has to have only the parking brakes on to run the fogs.

The fog light harness is on its own seperate relay and power for all of your information. No other fuse or larger fuse should be necessary for doing this mod.

You mean parking lights??

I want to do this, I did it on my Maxima, and all we had to do for the 3rd gen max was clip 1 wire.

Re: who has the fog light mod?

The "foglight mod" is factory equipment on Australian NX's (they can be turned on with parking lights).

Can you U.S. guys only turn them on with full headlights (before "modding" of course)?

Re: who has the fog light mod?

I notice that the fogs turn off when I hit the hi-beams on my '00 SE. Not a big deal, I had considered altering this but was wondering why Nissan set it up this way. Would there be too much current draw to have hi-beams and fogs running at the same time? I wonder.

Driving in heavy snow storms on the highway I sometimes have to turn the headlights off and run with parking lights only to see further that 2 feet in front of me. It would be nice to run fogs in this case to throw a bit more light but not have it bounce back. Isn't that the REAL purpose of fog lights anyway?

Re: who has the fog light mod?

LOL, I drive my big ass Pathfinder with twin Hella 500's up front and pierce through the snow. I can't imagine driving my FWD sentra in the winter! I tried one weekend, and slid to the side of the road twice and I never attempted again.

Got me some kickin' snow tires on winter wheels and LSD. Michigan rally season! Haven't lost control yet, the stock Firehawk tires are suicide in the snow.
