We'll see, once the stuff comes in...
Paul,

I installed 3 pairs of these and the cleanest, simplest solution, posted about a year or two ago by a forum member, is to remove the fog light relay, identify the leg that plugs into ground socket, bend the leg around the relay housing, insert a electrical wire through a hole on the leg (for some reason they all have a hole), solder the wire to the leg, and finally find a ground point and ground it out. Works like a charm.
