Re: piaa 520 wiring help needed

I prefer a good, clean connection for high-current items like fogs or drivings. I do not think that the crimp-type connectors make a good connection for the new items and can cut and/or nick the strands of wire for the existing items that are powered by that circuit. I would run a lead from the battery or battery supply at either of the fuse boxes, with an inline fuse assembly, to the switch then relay.

I totally agree, I can't tell you how many times I have had those crimps fail. Leave the factory wiring alone and tap into the fuse box using an Add on circuit. Worth every cent.
