    Hey everyone,
    I'm going to be replacing my OEM fog lights with LED light pods on my 2006 Tundra DC and I just need some help on wiring these safely. The light pods draw 0.6a each and I'll be powering 2. Would I be able to wire the light pods to the factory fog lights harness or will that be too much for the factory wiring? I have a LED headlight resistor on one side since I already have LED bulbs. Should I add a resistor to the other side if the pods wont draw enough power? Am I on the right track or should I take a completely different route?
    I'm not the greatest at explaining things at first so please ask questions if you have any. I'm completely open to any suggestions and feedback.
    Thanks!
    -Luke

    The stock halogen bulbs draw WAY more power than the LED lights you are putting in. The stock bulbs draw 55W or ~4.6 amps. You are safe using the factory wiring for the LEDs.
