Default Fogs on with DRL

Anyone have a link to a page that can help me wire my fogs so they stay on with my DRL? Thanks

if you wire your fogs to stay on with the high beams you'll fry your fuse panel

You're saying that I have to get a resistor, they are not plug and play?

they are plug and play if you want the LED's to not be bright at all because they will only be running on 6v..but if you want them realllly bright and on full power you gotta get a resistor which ups the power to 12v..the guy from v-leds built me a rig for $15..they might be available on the website now actually..i havent checked
