Default help: fogs on without headlighta

Hey guys, so here is a question for all. How can I run my foglights without having my headlights on? I know there is a relay somewhere, but if I disconect it, what wires will I have to connect to feed power to the fogs? Haven't looked at the service manual yet but with time I will lol.
That's for a 92 rs, foglights were stock so all wiring will be proper *fingers crossed*
I know I could just rewire the fogs but I would like to use most of the fog wiring to save some headaches. Any tips would be greatly appreciated.

Just wire up the power different so you can turn the lights on when ever you want to.

Hmm yeah I figured. Guess ill bust out the good ol'volt meter, and v which wire comes from headlights.
Only thing I'm wondering is since the headlights control when fogs work and not, do the headlights supply the power or is it like a remote wire?
Hmm ill go over the service manual but if somebody knew, it would save me the headache.

U can hook up dir to battery, if you hook it up to the same power resource the headlight might have to be on (not 100%) to get the fogs to work. Mine are dir to batt. Kinda messy though thinkin of changing it.
