DC integra OEM optional Fog.... can you Re-wire?

so yeah, i want to re-wire my fogs on my 01 GSR so they can light up independantly, without needing the healights on. i did this with my G2 no problem, but after searching on this for a DC,i searched here and a few other boards and i couldnt find anything on how to do this. ANY help would be greatly appreciated.


Thanks
Rob

You need a 4 things

Test light
One tapper
one butt connector
One piece of wire

Take the fog light switch out, find the wire that is power to the lights. When all your lights are on and the test light lights up, hit the high beams and the light goes out, thats the wire.

Cut the wire and put the butt connector on the connector (switch side) the run the wire to your...... defroster, stereo, cig lighter, any power source that work off the key. Key in and on, has power, remove key, no power.

Use the tapper and tap the wire in to that and your done. Just tape off the old power wire.

Hope that helps?

Well, i spliced it to my Radio cuttoff switch, my Fuel Pump power cutoff and my cigarette lighter with no success. what happens, is i hear a little "click" coming from the gauge cluster area. this click always sounds off when i turn the fogs on. so it sounds like power is running to it, but something under the dash is prohibiting it...

any other suggestions?

oh, heres the pics of the new bulbs i got. its the OEM dealer optional Raybrig foglights. i put just some Nokya Yellow bulbs in. i though my car would look real nice with the fogs always on kinda like DRL (daytime running lights). so i can have my USDM mode (with lights off) or my JDM mode (with lights on) during the daytime LOL
yeah i didnt want to paint the outside. heres pics now:
