Does anyone have any idea where these wires come from, or what they look like(colors of the wires)? Just wondering where the best place to get these two wires, low beam power and side marker power, are at their closest to eachother point. I'm trying to install a relay so that only when the low beams are getting power will the side markers be on. I usually cruise through parking lots with just my parking lights on, and since I installed the one wire fog light to running light mod, plus have white parking/turn signal bulbs up front, the side orange throws it off. Too bad it's illegal to be on the road with any other color bulb on the front sidemarker. I'd rather only install one relay, if I can find a point where these two wires are close enough together where I don't have to run an extra wire across the front of the car. Thanks!

The headlights are on separate circuits(right and left). The low beams are easy to spot going into the fuse box in the engine compartment. Just check the colors at the lamp connector and go to the fuse box and look, I think they are red/wht and red/blue, check for yourself. I'm sure the markers run in the same run as the headlamps, at least on the passenger side.

If you want to check further go to the following which is the protege manual posted on line, this link is to the lighting section.

Kick ass, thanks. I'll check it out when I get home, this phone doesn't like pdf too much.
