Why don't you just rub some salt into the wound! Showoff! I guess I can take it as "motivation."

How about sharing how you did this?

no, I had the KP module. I tired running relay using the stock switch but the parking would have to be on with the fog.

So if I am understanding you correctly, you are now using an auxiliary (aftermarket) switch to power the fog light relay. Am I correct?

Okay, I understand now.
You got completely independent fogs with the stock fog switch using the KP module (which is what I had in my '04 G35 coupe), but without the KP module you could only have the fogs on with the parking lights on.

Would you be able to post instructions for how you wired the KP module in your G37 sedan? The instructions that come with KP module are vague and not specific for the G37 sedan, and I'm sure a few of us would benefit from your experience as to how you successfully wired the KP module.

Thanks.

THAT'S the how-to I'm hoping to read. While the KPTech module is nice and all, there has to be an easy (free) crimp-and-connect wiring mod so that the fogs can be turned on when the parking lights are turned on. I did this in my '03 Maxima, and would like the same in my G37, if possible.

Thanks. These specific instructions for the '10 G37 Sedan are very helpful.
Some accompanying photos would make this mod even easier. I think I may order the KP module and go ahead with this mod myself. I'll take photos for a DIY post if/when I have the time to do this.

yes there is a way like I have mentioned before ... well the fogs are always on with the parking lights ....a little bummer but wouldn't really use them without parking lights anyway... just would like to be able to keep the stock fog switch

Guys please help!

Went to the shop and installed KP Technologies module for fog lights.

However, when I turn on left turn signal my fogs turn on also, but when I turn on right

turn signal fogs do not turn on.

How to fix this? Please help.

My car is 2008 G37s Coupe.

Thanks in advance.

I went, and they said it suppose to do so. I was like NO!

Emailed KP Technologies to see if this issue can be resolved.

Waiting on answer...
