I want to run my fog lamps on with the running lights. does anyone know how to wire it in so that i can run the fog lamps with just the running lamps?
 
I just did this with my washer nozzle LED lights. All you have to do is look on your fuse box under the hood on the passenger side of the engine bay and find the one that runs into your parking lights. follow the wire from your parking lights to the fuse box. While the lights are on, pull the fuse to make sure you have the right one. The lights should go off.

Now, unbolt the box from the frame and turn it over. look for the wire running to that fuse and splice your fog light wires into it. Make sure you connect the positive wires to that wire, then run your negative wires to the negative terminal of the battery. Now when you turn on the parking lights, your fog lights come on automatically.

Another alternative is to go to a junkyard and pull a switch that allows you to turn them on and off. My 92 has this switch, and if I leave it on, the fog lights come on and off with the lights themselves. If you need a picture of the switch I can get it for you. its located in the same spot on the right side of the steering wheel as the switch for what I am guessing is the headlight motors on the 90-91 models. If you remove the trim around your instrument cluster, then take the bracket out of the left side, the switches pop right out of the bracket. from there slide a new one in and plug it in. You may have to cut the connector when you take the switch from the yard so that you can wire it in. If you need any help, feel free to PM me.
