And several people asked me how to do it.

I think I put some detailed procedures on the list a while
ago, but don't know what to search for in the archives,
so here it is again:


Find the relay that controls the fog lights in the relay box
under the hood (relay #1; it's marked). Pop it out, and jumper
pins 30 and 87 together in the socket. The *best* way to do
this is with one of the official jumpers used in other sockets.
A junkyard or shop will have them, or the dealer.

Voila.

The fog lights can now be turned on by the switch regardless
of the setting of the headlights.


NOTE: this is technically illegal in the US. The DOT doesn't
much like people deciding for themselves when to use which lights.

Only my cat shares my opinions, and she's pretty foggy.
