Default Fog light mod!!!! yay!!

Ok guys, i am not positive on this, but from what i have read, people have been looking for the mod to make it so your fog light stay on while on high beams. I FIGURED IT OUT!!!! BOOO YAHHH..... I did this on my 98 cherokee sport.

Here is my step by step:

pic #1: here you see the relay
pic #2: pull the relay and bend the terminal out
pic #3: attach a female connector to the prong and ad about 18 inches of wire
pic #4: run the wire to the NEGATIVE terminal on the battery

This works great and it works just like it did before except the fog lights stay on with the high beams on. Im sorry if this was already covered, i looked but didnt see it. You have control of the fog lights with the switch on the console just like it was.

I dont know how this works, BUT im not responsible for any bad luck on your part..... i also do not know how to label each pic either, so im sorry for that.

yeah on mine you have to have the wire due to it needing the ground. when the high beams are turned on the ground is disconnected? anyways alot of people said they tried the "bending of the prong" and the fog lights wouldnt work at all. ill try and unhook the ground i hooked up and ill let ya know if they still work.
