I have done the DR hack on both my Boxsters and really like the result. It turns the fog lights on any time the ignition is on. I also installed LED bulbs in the fogs. Search for DRL Hack and you shall find. It takes about 5 minutes to install with a fuse jumper to the relay.

Yes I read about the DRL hack, something about jumping fuses 6 and 9?
What you're mentioning is a bit different though with fuse jumper to relay so will have to do some more research.

So what you mentioned activates the foglights only then as DRL's and I would imagine the Canadian spec cars do the same thing right?

If that's the case that's perfect for me.
thanks!

My '01 has the fogs switched over to LED DRLs, and I've been wanting to revert back to stock. Now I know where to look!
