You will need one replay, use a 12 V 30/40 AMP 5 pin Relay and harness such as ebay item # 5738651658. Hookup the relay trigger (pin 86) to the 12v+ wire of your lowbeam and the other side of the trigger (pin 85) to ground. This will trigger the relay when your lowbeam head lights are turned on. Run a 12v+ wire from your battery with a 15-20amp fuse to (pin 87) of the relay. Then run a wire from wire from (pin 30) of the relay to the + side of your fog lights. Then ground the ground wires of the fog lights and there should be light.

thanks alot reekor! Just one more question. Won't this draw power from the headlight and dim the headlight the wires, or relays, attached to. Pardon my question if it seems dumb but im not much with electrical components.

Yes it will draw power from the headlight only to trigger the relay. The relay uses very little power (they can be triggered with a 9v battery) and will not change the load on your headlights.

So it'll draw it directly from the battery? I already ordered one and I did some research but just make sure ;0)

The fog lights will draw power from the battery, that is why you need to run a wire from the battery with a fuse to the relay. The relay only acts as a switch that is turned on and off by applying power to the head lights.
