2000 Jeep Wrangler Fog Light Mod Questions
I have a 2000 Jeep Wrangler Sport with factory fog lights. I notice that if
you are using the fog lights and you use the high beams, the fog lights
become disabled as long as you have the high beams on. I found "mod"
instructions to allow the fog lights to be on with the high beams. The
instructions are as follow:
"On your 2000 the relays are behind the glove box. Take it out and look to
the firewall, the #2 relay is the one on the right closest to the outside of
the Jeep. Pull the relay straight up, the pins are labeled, but you will
need someone with good eyes or use a magnifying glass (look close, the #'s
are there) bend the #1 pin back instead of cutting it off and then you could
reverse it back to stock later if you want."
I have 2 questions: 1) Are these procedures correct and 2) Is this
modification street legal?

Re: 2000 Jeep Wrangler Fog Light Mod Questions
I am interested in the mod only to get more light when off-roading at night.
I would not 'consciously' use the high beams with the fog lights while on
public roads. I am glad you like my name. I am in search of discovering
why I have 'smegma breath'. Do you have any ideas?

Re: 2000 Jeep Wrangler Fog Light Mod Questions
As if bending pins on the relay would be a legal thing to do.. why do you
think that the lights are set up the way they are from the factory?.. Fog
lights are designed for use in fog and falling snow.. the beam pattern is
short range and wide.. they are set low on the vehicle so that the beam
shines under the fog layer.. they are not fitted so that an idiot like you
can emulate the spacecraft seen in "Close Emcounters"..

History is only the past if we choose to do nothing about it..
