Non-factory fog light wiring....

[mp3deviant721]

How do all of you guys have yours routed? I was thinking of going through the speedometer cable hole on mine. Is there a better place or would I have stay with the going through the speedometer hole? And I also wanted to make sure my wiring plan would be ok too. I was planning on wiring a relay's coil side inline with the parking lights so the fogs would only be able to come on with the parking lights. Then wire the switch side to a constant 12v with a switch in between the lights and relay. What could I wire the switch side to?

On automatics I run wires through the clutch hole, and on manuals I run wires through the auto shift cable hole.

As far as the wiring... you confused the sh!t outta me, but,

Relay 12v+)) from battery
Relay output)) to lamp + leads
Relay ground)) to switch>> switch to ground
Relay switch input)) From park lamps- brown wire

Or...
12v+ from park lamps inside (from back of lamp switch)
> wired to switch
>> switch wired to relay switch input
>>> relay ground to ground

Those are the ways I prefer to do it because the is only 1 wire that has to go through the firewall.

About where might that auto shift cable hole be located? And how would I include wiring for an illuminated switch?

Mine are actually in a square grommet (looking from engine side) to the left of the throttle cable on the firewall.

And the switch just requires a ground for the light.

Will have to get mine done this weekend. Have them mounted and wired up but have not completed the wiring the the cab. Gonna go with the switch that came with the lights for now and in spring will wire to an OEM foglight switch
