Hello,I have a 2008 Santa Fe that did not come with fog lights, or wiring, so I purchased a kit from KC HIlites which came with wiring for two front fog lamps, a relay, and a switch. I've installed all the lamps and wiring but am stumped as to where to connect the power to the switch. I want it to be controlled by the ignition switch, that is when the ignition is off the fog lamps are off even if the switch is on. Is there an accessory connection to the fuse box inside that I can connect to?

Thanks in advance!
 
easiest place to grab power is from the cigarette lighter. on most cars this is only powered when the ignition is on. I don't know what the wiring colors are for Hyundai, but on the cars I've owned (Japanese) the positive wire is usually the colored one (pink, I think) and the black was gound.
 
I connected the larger yellow wire to the hot or battery side in the fuse box. The trigger wire I connected to the hood light wire. I was really trying to find a wire that had juice only while the truck was running but ended up doing it this way.
 
On my Tundra I replaced the fog lights with PIAA driving lights & Hella's on my full front guard. I took power from the battery & the controller power comes from the original headlight wires. They already have factorey set auto "turn-off". With a simpley light power tester & plastic wire splicers you will be able to tap into any easy location. Finish the job with tie-wraps so no cable is hanging around.
