    Has the headlamp been changed? It just looks bluer than mine. It could just be the camera.

    I'm raising thread back up to the top. I'm also very curious which wire you tap for SS3 Fog DRLs. Anyone help us out?

    I had used a tap a fuse to the drl fuse, ran the passenger drl wire over to driver side and spliced together with driver side then to the tap but I have it on a switch panel now.

    Ok got it. I read in another post that you could use the a t tap into the green wire coming off the headlight assembly. That is apparently the DRL light.

    I did install a D-Switch from Diode Dynamics this weekend and I could just run the wires to the Backlight plug but I'd like to run the Fogs independent to the rest of the lights on the rig.

    Some questions for anyone that might know: Would it be the positive wire for the DRL bulbs that you want to tap in to? This would make the SS3 backlight "constant on" if the DRL's or parking lights are on and is the backlight on with low beams unless you turn on the fog light switch?

    Tapping into non LED DRLs will work, but not with LED DRL as the current is too low to power backlights
