I recently ordered this drl front vent replacement: https://www.ebay.ca/itm/For-Honda-C...RL-fog-lamp-/183590001497?txnId=1979224440008

currently waiting for it to arrive. so im trying to prepare as much as i can.

Im wondering if i should splice its white light with the DRL of the headlights or splice it with the fog lights?

anyone have this on their hatchback? how did you wire it? Always on when engine/acc mode is on? Or only On when fog lights are on? what do you think?

i have no issues with how im gonna wire it with the signal lights though. that was pretty straight forward.

I did this to my sedan but with different lights. I wired the white lights to the DRL but they only turn on when I turn the switch. I wanted it to always be on when the drl are on but this is better because you don’t really need those extra lights to be on when there is light out cause you can’t really see them on. They look amazing at night though. This is an old photo when I first installed them.

the light control switch. I turn it to the parking lights one and it turns on the white lights and the fog light halos without turning on the low beams My car didn’t come with fog lights so I added them by buying the stock harness.But I have a different button that turns on the foglights. Some cars have a button or a switch to turn on the foglights.
