I have not done progress on this yet since we had a baby.. I'm waiting for the fg EGR visor and folding mirrors to come so I can start sending the pieces for painting. ;)

I wired the fogs today..

ok, nobody does this right (only like 1 or 2 other members actually are trying or have done it right... the fogs on the '98+ front end are not quad fogs nor are they fogs and signals. the inside pair=fogs, outside pair=turning floods... they are not signals, parking lights, or fogs. ASTIG and i spoke about this in detail and TRIGGERMAUVE and a bunch of JDM owners have confirmed this over the years. the outside pair are actually aimed at an angle away from the car. what they are supposed to do is light up the road white in the direction of the turn, and stay lit as long as the signal on that side is activated (they should not blink and should never be on at the same time). ASTIG got the wiring to work or was about to last i talked to him about it... he can help you do it correctly (as well as all the other guys w/ the same front end). as for the headlight wiring, look at my tutorial. the correct wiring makes the low beam and hi beam stay on when the hi beam is activated... they should not alternate when going from low to high and back... the high beam should ADD to the low beam and turn off again when the hi beam is deactivated, but the low beams should not go off until the headlights are turned off.

That's what I remember reading before and I told ron the same thing as well. Cuz it is legal to have only quad lights but imagine having quad plus 2 on the fogs plus the flood lights all at once that's way too many lights. But the question is how is it wired to the turn signal without blinking. I have to search for that and see if I can figure it out

ASTIG figured it out w/ some relays and capacitors... yo ASTIG chime in! basically the way it works is the outside turning light turns on then turns off a few seconds after the signal stops blinking, the capacitors store the charge and keep the bulb on for a few seconds so they don't blink.

I wired my fogs the same way, I know what the ouside lights are for. Even if there was a way to make them only come on while turning and then go off, I would still have them as my parking lights because that is the way I want and like them. Just like I know that Vr4 heads in Japan or whatever, all 4 beams should stay on when the brights are on, again, I dont want them that way. I dont understand why you guys try to make it seem that it's the only way and how it should be?
