HID Fog Lights

I know that this has been a problem, since the car uses the fog lights as cornering lights, and fades them on/off, which makes it impossible to install HIDs. I figured out how to put them in without any programming. I also deleted the cornering light function, again without programming, and with no modification to the car's wiring harness. I was thinking about selling harnesses, thoughts?


Photo Proof (again, no programming to the car and no modification to the car's wiring harness):

I didn't program anything out. My buddy took his car to Auto Couture and they said they could not code out the cornering light. Dunno if that's an LCI thing or what.
