Hey guys. I am finally getting around to finishing up installing a couple extra sets of driving lights. I have some 50w spot beams that I wired to their own switch and they work great. I am trying to finish up the 100w spot beams now. I have them all wired with a relay system, I just need a power source to trigger the relay. The problem is I would really like them to just come on with the high beams.

After taking a step back and checking out some wiring diagrams, I realized that the whole headlight system is based on a ground switching circuit. This wont really work with my wiring set up I have at the moment.

Is there anywhere in the system that I could find a good power source for a trigger? Or am I better off just wiring in a stand alone toggle switch for the lights and dealing with turning them on and off separately from the headlight system?

Simple get you feed from the fog lamp relay.

But that would give me 0v on high correct? I need the opposite. Because I set my lights up over an extended amount of time, I just set up two completely separate circuits for the driving and fog lights. All I need is a 12v signal to turn on the fog lights with the high beams. 

Still can use it. Use a 5 pin relay. Then use 30 and 87 pins leave 87a open. The when toggled to low the circuit open and the light are off.

Not sure why I didnt think about that. Thanks for setting it straight for me.

I've got a degree from ITT Tech for electronics and computer science.

Yeah I know...
