Default heres how

I took the power from the parking light (next to the headlight)....
then sliced the green wire enuff for you to work with...
connected the same size wire to the green wire you sliced tape it up....
drop wire down the side till it meets the corner light...this part is hard....
jack the car up unscrew the cover covering the corner light...now the light should be visable...
now your gonna cut the green wire connected to corner light make sure you dont cut 2 close cause you need to connect the wire you tapd from the parking..now once those are connected everytime your parking lights are on your corners will be also any questions pm me

so its parkings + to coners + so the + that was already going to the corners you no longer need get it........

You should used a relay and used the parking light as your output signal to the the corner light on/off.

I don't see the point. I just had mine wired up the same way, splicing the wire from the bumper corner (little amber) to the fog, and it works just fine. The fogs come on with the parking lights and the headlights. No need for a relay, also they don't blink with the turn signals, it's perfect.

Only thing I have different is that I pulled the bulbs from all the parking lights, so nothing else comes on. I pulled the two bulbs next to the headlight bulbs, and pulled the small wedge bulbs from the bumpers. When my headlights go on, I have no amber lights, only thing that goes on are my 9006 headlight bulbs and my 1156 corner/fog light bulbs. It's a much cleaner look IMO.

datsetup, what bulbs are you using in those corners? I am using the PIAA 1156 Xtreme white, and they don't look as bright as yours. What are you using in there?

Time consuming mod?? Are you kidding me? This can be done in about 15mins. I'm 6'1 and i was able to fit my hands thru the grill so i did not have to unbolt the cover underneath. Relay?? Not for another 10+watts on the system with 1156 bulbs. Ive had it like that since june, no problems. Mine are amber
