Foglight Mod

As per "Pete S4"'s FAQ on Audiworld, I have performed a modification to my foglights on my 2000 A4. The result is that now I am able to turn on my foglights whenever my car is on (or in the ACC position), regardless of the current state of my headlights. This also means that the foglights do not turn off when you turn on the high beams as it was originally configured.

In order to accomplish this, you must remove the relay module seen below, open it up, solder a wire between 3 contacts, and cut off 3 of the external pins.

Solder pins 14, 15 & 17 together by way of a wire or two internally
Cut off pins 12, 15 & 17

Kinda tight getting your hand in there to replace it
View of glove box open. Be sure to reconnect the black plastic piece on the left side - it's the dampened release.
