Off of the factory fog light harness? I broke out both fog lights but am puting my KCs on my new bumper. I dont want to have another relay if its not necussary. Can i just hook them up to my factory harness?:icon_confused:

You probably can. Compare the stock fuse rating to the fuse rating of the KCs; if theyre the same that's a good indication that you can. Better, see if you come up with the wattage of the OEM lights (maybe look up the replacement bulb on the net) and compare that to the wattage of the KCs you have. The stock relay is likely fine, but if you're up-watting the circuit a lot the wires may need upgrading to a heavier gauge.

Ok, I took and hooked one up and it worked fine, didnt pop any fuses but I didnt run it long either. Thanks for the info.

Well I did it, they work great. I have run them an hour strait and nothing seems to be getting hot. So i think they are good to go.

Sounds like you are good to go. Thanks for letting us know how it turned out.
