Default Lighting - High Beam Adapter

I recall a few years ago there was a vendor who had a plug and play wiring harnis adapter (just a wired connection to the + Battery post with male and female connnections to the wiring to and at the bulbs, all 3 each side) that would keep the low beam and driving lights on when putting on the high beams. Does anyone remember who that was?

Default Painless P/N 30802

I google searched the company and got right to their website. It costs about $28.00 and was really easy to attach. All the wires are right under the battery and fuse box. BUT, I never was able to figured out how to wire the fogs so they stay on all the time. But the hi's are now on with the low's. Too bad I can't get the fogs to stay on all the time (when the headlights are on).

Ok you got my attention. Do you remember the name of the vendor you did the google search on or what terms you used to search. I sure would appreciate it.

PS: DUH - Painless P/N 30802 LOL I never read the subject line. Thanks.

PSS: Nope not plug and play enough. It requires cutting wires or worse use of crimp connectors. I want to plug into the existing lines either at the bulbs or at other connectors already available.

Sorry; that's the only one I know but it really isn't hard. Find the correct wires and just use crimp connectors, couldn't be easier? Took about an hour. If I didn't have to screw around with the fogs it would have taken less time.
