    I had a Nissan Maxima back in the day that had cornering lights and I’ve missed them ever since. The Rough Country front bumper kit comes with 4 fog lights. 2 are more than adequate. So, I aimed 2 of them out and tapped into the turn signal switches to activate the relay to turn them on and off. The wires that plug into the harness on the turn signal assembly are negatively switched so you’ll have to wire the relay to be triggered with the ground (see diagram below I found on YouTube.) The wires on my 2018 are light green for left turn and dark green for right turn. If you have a different year, a simple multimeter can help you find the right colors for yours. I only use waterproof relays and seal and solder the connections with these cool connectors on the Amazon link. Now I don’t know how I ever lived without them!IMG_0017.jpg IMG_0010.jpg IMG_0009.png

    The video is distorted as it’s from the wide angle lens on my dash cam, but it gives you the idea.
