    I’ve looked around but can’t really find what I’m looking for, I was wondering if anyone has ever used the stock fog light wiring to run some pods? I’m replacing my front and would rather keep my oem fog light switch rather than run a bunch of new wiring.

    I did. Caliraised has a wiring harness for it. Of course added extra lights instead of two so I spliced into it to join the two additional pods into the wiring harness. F9AF7900-7E88-483E-8CAA-F6949DE972F8.jpg

    Easy way to tell, even not specifically for fog lights, is to compare rates amperage draw of the product in question (really ought to be listed, even in wattage which you can use to calculate amp draw) to the fuse rating on the circuit in question.
