Default Help with wiring Headlight + OEM fogs & Roush lower Fogs?

Just added the roush front Fascia and lip...Love my car even more.
Sorry if this is a repost but Is it possible to run your stock headlights with the middle fogs along with the Roush fogs? Couldnt find instructions anywhere. I want to be able to turn my headlights on then turn on the other 4 lights so that ALL 6 are running at once. Yes, it MAY be not be legal in Cali but oh well.
Thanks for the help!

Do you have the wiring harness for the fogs? If not I can sell you mine and it comes with a switch for the fogs

The Roush wiring harness only alternates the lights between stock fogs and the Roush driving lights. You'll have to jerry rig it, but electrical is not my field.

Just tie the Roush flogs into the wiring of the stock fogs; both will be on at the same time.

You need to dominate the fog light switch.
Remove the Roush OEM/ROUSH fog selector switch
and tie all three of the wires going to the back of
it together. YEA, all six come on now.
No need to be in a field when doing the connections.

yeah I just wired the new roush fogs to my stock fogs wiring harness. Just make sure you make good connections when putting everything back together.

I gotta try harder. That switch can be tricky to dominate

Yes mine came with the harness. Its already all plugged in and working. Right now I can only switch between the either set of fog lights. So you guys are suggesting that I splice the stock fogs into the roush harness? Wouldnt that be to much and burn out? Do i have to change the fuse or anything? Sorry asking so much, had some wiring /electrical in another car...dont ever want to deal with that again!

the problem is that the roush kit goes inline with the stock kit due to light laws and also current draw on the light wire used in our harness. after time you may smoke the wire. also the dominating thing will not work with the roush kit as it only turns on there relay assuming you have your fogs on then because they have you unplug your stock plug and then plug into there plug it redirect the power to there light. if i were you i would remove the roush male female plugs from you set up and then just rewire the roush relay to work off of there switch as a stand alone system that way you still have the option of one or both on. ill draw you a quick fix if you want.
