fog light modifications so they stay on with high beams

Does anyone know if this can be done? I like having the fog light on with the high beams to fill in the dark space closer to the truck. I appreciate any help.
also this is stock fog lights on a f-150 2004

That's the way to do it.

Yes, it should work on 07' too. I plan on doing this, just haven’t gotten around to it yet.

Thumbs up Fog lights

I just bought a used 2004 F150 Lariat with less than 10,00 miles on it and im still trying to figure out how to get the fog lights on even. Im new to the Ford family as i have always owned something else. Had my truck now for a little over a month. Its honestly the nicest truck ive ever owned.

Just pull the headlight switch after you have turned on the headlights, same procedure for auto on headlights too.

You are correct.....and your point is well taken, but it's also illegal to blind oncoming drivers with your brights, so I figure if I do my job of driving correctly, there shouldn't be anyone in front of me to complain about the high beams and the fog lights together, because the lows will be on by the time they are "in range".


I did the relay trick tonight, took 15min. and made a huge difference in the high beam lighting by adding the fogs. I have been meaning to get to this mod for weeks, but this thread was what it took to kick my butt into gear!!!!!
