Depends on the current draw of the lights, it is the same as the factory ones (which is pretty low) you most likely won't need a relay. My 55w lights would not work off the fog light circuit, they would flash on and off every few seconds. So I just used the factory wiring to trigger a relay.

Hmmm, I just read your post again, you don't have factory fogs, in which case I don't know if you have the wiring or switch for them either?
