Just did it, 15 mins max. Works like a charm.

 

I did the change the OP listed about 1.5 years ago and it works great. No issues.

as for the other option...

it might be "easier" but its 80 bucks. The change the OP listed is free if you have some wire in the garage... or maybe 2 bucks if you need to buy wire and connectors. Plus you then have to replace your bulbs regularly... no thanks.

But I fully recommend the fog light mod. Its great.

 

i have a 06 and i was wondering how i can do it

 

Follow the instructions I posted on the previous page.

 

Just posting another option. I know it cost a few dollars but it does keep the lows on where the other doesn't. I haven't replaced a single bulb since my install so unless you've tried it how can you comment? Unless you have and had bad luck with it. I see no disadvantage in using this kit... actually I see better than you

 

For those of you asking if the ground wire mod will work on an '06, YES it will. I just came in from the garage, where I did the mod. As a previous member posted, the '06 relay has one less pin, but it doesn't affect anything. Just ground the corresponding one as shown in the pic.

The mod was very simple. I even took it a couple steps further, and drilled a 9/64" hole in the top right side of the fuse box, to allow a clean exit for the ground wire, and secured the slide connector to the relay with some electrical tape, for added assurance. No need to drill the cover, if you locate the box exit hole in the upper most right corner, as there is a 45 degree cutout, already in place on the cover. Honestly, I am not sure how guys are replacing the cover, and not pinching the wire, if no wire exit hole is drilled!? Take your time, make solid connections with the proper electrical connectors, and this mod will serve you well. Thanks for the idea, guys!

 

does the cover on the fuse box pull right off or??? i tried to yank it off but it seems that mother is not coming loose...maybe because its cold out? any info?

 

Yeah it pulls right off. Pull from the bottom. The cover actually says "Pull" at the bottom.

 

Yeah, pull from the bottom tab, where it says "pull", lol. It helps if you pull downward as you pull it out at the bottom. Mine was pretty tight, too.

 

TIGHT! i popped it off with a screw driver, i know that thing won't ever accidentally pop over EVER!!

 

I just finished this mod on my 07' and it works great.

 

yea me too. last time i did this mod on my ford ranger, i broke the tab off the relay and the dam thing wouldn't start

 

Yea I was real careful when I was bending the terminal. The last thing I wanted was to break it off. But all went well and I'm driving around with the high's and fogs together, very nice.

 

I try to keep the stupid questions to a minimum and I feel like a COMPLETE idiot for asking this, but what pin are you supposed to be bending back? Everyone seems to understand these instructions except for me. Thanks.

 

but on the 07 and 08's there is only 2 pins on the top (the red line is pointing to the one that is missing on the 07/08) so if your holding relay in your hand,pin's facing down, the pin on the right side gets bent over.
