    Has anyone wired their bright lights and fogs to be on at the same time?

    Please do more reasearch. Those links are know to work up to a 2017. 2018 trucks are a bit different.

    I can't say for sure about the jumper wire under the dash mod, but the grounding of the relay mod should work exactly the same on the 18's.

    Who in their right mind wants to blind oncoming traffic? I see no other reason for this and I'm gonna throw high beams back so we can both die squinting and angry anyway.

    What?
    The point of this is so when you turn on your high beams your fogs dont turn off, you lose a lot of light right in front and to the sides when the fogs turn off.
    Obviously when a car is oncoming you'd turn off high beams?
    This is a great mod, it makes it so you fogs are on all the time. Improves visibility to other drivers and improves your lighting at night

    I only do it so when I am driving at night with no oncoming traffic I can use highbeam and BD Fogs to see deer and other obstacles.

    This is a GREAT mod and actually the only way that make sense. Why would you not want fogs and high beams at the same time? It would make more sense to me if the fogs went off with low beams as a courtesy to oncoming traffic.

    Well, the only thing my fog lights in any of the 10 or so vehicles I have had with them "light up" in the slightest way are the ditch from my A pillar to half way down the fender. If you think foglight and brights go together, then you don't understand the concept of fog lights. Maybe you are confusing them with driving lights which are illegal to use on public highways in all 50 states. :crapstorm:
