dodgetrucker sold his truck and is no longer on the Dakota side (he got a Ram), this is an old thread. He built that bumper himself. Welcome to the forum by the way.

you would cut the wire feeding power to the fog lights, the fog light side of the wire would go to pin 30, the computer side of the wire would go to pin 87A, power from the highbeam circuit would go to pin 85, battery power (+)to pin 87, ground to pin 86,

this will allow normal operation of the fogs when on low beams, but will turn the fogs on all the time when the high beams are on, the only way to shut the fogs off with highs on would be to put a switch in line between the high beam circuit and pin 85,

here is a drawing, its crude but should get the idea...

I did this and it works great! Thanks!
