How did you guys wire these in? Just tap into a 12v source that's only on with the key?

Yes. Unfortunately I couldn't find any that were only on with the key under the hood so I tapped into the "Gauge" fuse in the drivers side fuse panel. Just use the hot from fuse and ground the negative to the battery and you're set.

The 20 amp washer fuse is only on with the key in the on position also did you use any resistors?

Guys, guys, guys.... Check this website, to turn ON and OFF your fog light from the original switch. You can turn ON and OFF with only your parking light ON. Is very easy to do. Check please. bananags.grantham-international.com

I've already done that but when you aren't using the factory harness you can't tie it in that easy

Maybe you should ground it to a ground instead of Neg terminal?
Regardless, looks great. Planning on doing something similar.

I honestly never thought of that. I'll try that soon to see how it works. Thanks! You'll have to show me what you come up with.
