Default Changing front fogs to driving lights

Hi folks, I've had a search and there is references in old threads to a PIAA kit to change front fogs to driving lights. Has anyone done this or know more info about it.

I have driving lights that will fit and was considering doing it myself, just wanting to check the wiring recommended and if there is a template for the brackets.

Ta.

Wiring has been posted on here so many times: you need a 4, or 5 terminal on/off relay, preferably with a fuse, or buy a separate fuseholder, blade type and a suitable fuse. You also need a couple of Scotchloks, some female spades and covers, (DO NOT buy the ones with coloured collars!), a few 5mm ring terminals, some thinner and some thicker wire, and about an hour's time.

Everything can be had here: Vehicle Wiring Products Ltd. Suppliers of auto electrical parts..

Very simple if you just feed from the main beam circuit, using a relay fed from the battery.

IMHO
