I do not recommend you use just the factory wiring as 100 - 130 watt KC lights have a signifiantly high draw than the factory 55watt foglamps. This is over twice what the facory lamps are. The factory circuit is not capable of handling the incraesed amperage and heat generated and will eventually fail. The setup I provided takes all the load off the factory switches and wires thus preventing a failure down the road. A relay is about $10.00 and takes about 15-30 minutes to wire up giving you a very cheap setup compared to buying a new turnsignal switch at over $100.00.
That's all I have to say! LOLZ
:blush :
: doh: How bout that?
