You simply cut the dectane connector off each pair of DRL wires, add 2' of wire so they are long enough to reach to the area of the lights themselves, then you T tap the positive wire to the porsche positive wire (I forget the color) and the ground to the porsche brown wire for the foglight wires. The foglights are the most inboard of the sockets. You also hook 1 orange wire to the porsche positive wire (red/white I think) on the park light. This wire senses when you turn on the park or headlights and shuts the DRL's off.

The red and black wires go to the psoitive and negative terminals of the battery. The module simply senses the current flow when you turn the key on and detects the current flow has stopped when you shut the key off. I can tell you the DRL's come on as soon as you turn the key on, and they stay on for 5 seconds after the key has been shut off. If that aspect of the module concerns you, buy the TFML01 unit. It does exactly the same thing as the 03 unit but instead of automatically sensing the "key on" via voltage, it uses a wire that you have to hook to your fuse box to a key switched circuit. You'll have to fish that wire through the firewall and down to your fuse box unless you can find a switched circuit under the hood. I opted to go with the automatic unit because it was 1 less wire to fiddle with and it seems to work fine.

WOuld the voltage work if I connected the cars fog to the led bar or would that damage something?

Combined with the utkinpol hack this will give me the lower leds as drls, the middle strip when i turn on the lights, and then only the lower less whenever I turn on the fogs. I'll put up some pics when and if I get it to work.

BTW i found the connector that porsche uses for the parking lights. BMW uses the same one and you can buy it at any dealer. Its useful if some one needs to hook up a resistor, etc and doesn't want to splice into the factory wires.
