Does not work on '06's - the electrical system is radically different than the 05's and earlier. Computer controls this now...BUT - I believe it's Geno's that sells a kit that essentially rewires the circuit after the computer so it still thinks it's powering only the high beams but is also powering the fogs when on.

I did this mod yesterday. I did it the way schnydz says. His pic uploaded fine for me. I also put an inline fuse in the wire I installed, just to be safe. That way if I would have hooked up to the wrong terminal, only my fuse would have popped. The mod works great. I think it would work either way, but this seemed safest. Thanks for the info guys!![sm=goodidea.gif]

Can you give us a link to where we can get this kit?

My OEM fogs are on the way and I would definitely like to have the fogs and high beams on at the same time. Especially out here in the desert. Anybody figure this out for the '06 yet? Also, anybody do the install of the oem fogs with new oem switch on their '06 and have any tips or anything I should look for? Thanks in advance!

Agree the schnydz way is the safest and best connection option at least for my 05'; it's been working perfectly.
Thanks for the 'free mod' !

Hmmmm... Why does this conjure up visions of burnt out ruined wiring harnesses in my mind? [sm=badidea.gif] I wouldn't do it.
