'03 Foglight rewire....
Has anybody tried rewiring the fogs on an '03 so they will come on with the parking lights? I had done this on my Maxima and really liked it as an option, but the guy that helped me had a wiring diagram.

I am sure you can do something similar using the procedure on my site for what I did to my 1999. Just find the fog relay and bring the parking lamp power to the place where the relay was getting the headlamp power.

I do not know if they use the same setup as the 3rd gens or not, but on the 3rd gens this is how it is done.
There is a bundle of wires that leaves the steering column on the right side. You will have to remove the lower panel to expose it.
What they did on the 3rd gens is locate the wire in that bundle that is hot when the low beams are on and tap into it. All you have to do is find the wire that is hot when the parking lights are on and move the tapped wire to the new wire and you are all set.
It maybe different on the 4th gens. Hell, I could not even tell you where the switch is, but you can locate the switch and trace the wires to where one connected insde the steering column or close to it. Once you determine which is the trigger wire all you will have to do is move its source to the parking light wire.
