Need assistance with wiring

Guys, I'm looking to wire up my Mercedes E-class LED DRLs.

They are a simple +/-. I'd like them hooked up to my already mounted in my car accord fog switch.

The mechanism I'd like them hooked up is that they are able to be turned on completely independent of the engine. Basically I would like full control.

If someone could hook it up with a wiring diagram or even help me in person, I would gladly appreciate it with a free lunch at your place of choice (I'm a chipotle and 5 guys guy).

Brian

I'm sure someone else will chime in but if you want full and complete control, you can tap directly off the battery/power source and wire the switch inline with it or the switch tapped with a switched 12V so you can't accidently leave them on.

Being that they were originally DRL's, I would double check that they don't need a voltage regulator so they don't blow up on you.

If you don't get a better/more detailed answer PM me and I could draw you up a simple one in paint.

I've thought about getting these for my TSX - where did you get them? Any for a good price?
