Re: Rear fog lights

[Robert Malinka <rmalinka@spec.net>]

Get the euro headlight switch at Timmons and mention you are a EC reader and
you will get a discount on the switch. It should run you about $69.00.
Timmons will also send you with the switch a jumper which will enable you to
operate both high beams and fogs at the same time.  With regard to the rear
fogs, they are not affected by the high beam relay and will remain on at all
times as long as you have the switch pulled all the way out. You will see an
orange LED come on (rear fogs) next to the green LED which are the forward
fogs. Each light is separately switched by the euro switch.  When you hook
up your rear fogs run a wire from the number 12 connector on the switch to
the rear fog light.
