Default high and low beams

question for you dodge guys and gals!! I waswondering if it is possable to wire your headlights so the fog lights stay on when the highbeams are on! i work out in the oil patch and driving down these roads is nice with the fog lights to see the pot holes so any advise or do it yourself techniques would be awsome!! It is a 07 3500 mega cab 5.9 diesel slt

check genosgarage.com they have the "Fogster' $110.00. It will keep the fogs on with the high beam

The dealer can do this for you with the device that reads the engine codes. I had it done, no charge. Nothing to buy, just download the specific code to enable the fog lights to stay on with the high beams turned on.

Hope this helps. Mike.

Just did this. Works great. It will be nice during those long drives through the country during hunting season.

"can" thats the key word... I took mine in to have it done, apparently its against the law to run fog lights w/brights on in Florida...but its ok with dims....WTF

This place is always foggy right on the beach literally, people run KCs and Daylighters on light bars up and down this Hwy and I never hear of anyone getting a ticket for it...guess I'll have to get a lightbar like sharx
