Default 2005 Tacoma: Fog lights on whenever you want (TBM)

Inspired by TEFye.

I came up with a teeny wire mod to have the fog lights on whenever you want. Without the parking lights, with the parking lights, with the high beam, without the high beam, with the low beam, without the low beams, ON WHENEVER YOU WANT. BUT, the only problem is that you have to turn them off yourself when you take the key out, because I usually leave my lights on even during the day. I'll only do a write-up if people ask me to.

Oh yeah another thing, is it bad to have the fog lights on with high-beams? bad to have the fog lights on with parking lights? So then why did Toyota not wire the fog lights like this in the first place?

Thanks for the credit. You hit the exact reason that I didn't mod mine for 'anytime on' - I would forget to turn the darn things off!!
