I have a set of fogs that output 55wats each. I need someon to help me wire this up using a relay and a fuse.

O.k, You will need to get a relay, and look at the fuse that came with the lights. To start with you can hook this up several ways. I will tell you how I always hook them up. Find the parking light wire in your car and tap it. Run this wire to a switch on your dash ect...
From the switch on your dash run to the relay on pin 85. Run pin 86 to ground. Run 12 volts from your battery(or fuse box)to pin 87 and then run pin 30 to both of your fog lights. Install the fuse inline with the wire running from pin 30 to your lights. With this hook up you can turn your fogs off if you want to and you can only turn them on if your parking lights are on. That way you dont forget to turn them offand kill your battery. Good luck with it.

does this work?
87 to fogs
85 to one side of switch on dash, then other side of switch to ground
86 to 12v swtiched source (i'm thinking wipers)
30 to batt with inline fuse...
does this work also?
For the switched i can't tap onto the park lights or ignition lines becuase the fogs pull too much current.
what do you advise...
