Default Advise on these lights

I want these lights that Mopar sells that are on the top portion of the bumper but I see that the picture shows a bumper w/out fogs...so my dilemma is if I put them on my JK can I legally just tap into the fogs and have all 4 come on at once...has anyone done something similar??...thanks

there is no picture posted.

as for legality, it will depend on your states vehicle codes. MD only allows 2 additional lights (headlights +2) to be used at one time. you'll have to check MA's codes.

I would think you would need to run a relay to get them to work since people are having issues just running a higher wattage bulb. You would tap into the stock harness for the relay and use it to turn on the extra lights.

I wonder if they would look strange on top of the bumper?...

That thing looks like a cats eye reflectors on the interstate. It might look better on the bumper.
