the relay isn't in that pic. it's the square black thing that probably came in the same bag as the fog switch. It connects to "H"

I have a relay on mine that came with my civic fogs.
Anyways, I managed to hook mine up similar to yours however I didn't need to connect those two wires together. I'm still a bit puzzled but glad it works now.
I went crazy with the wiring when I did it last year, and connected it to an oem switch with an oem wire connector.

ya for sure. thanks for your DIY
The only thing I notice now which I didn't have before is that when my fogs aren't really turned on the fog switch light indicator tells me it's on. Is this the same for you?
Before this, everything worked accordingly... if fogs were off, indicator light is off even though the switch is pressed in.

my switch doesn't hav that problem. i heard of a few people though having that problem with the oem switches. I think you have the power to the 2 lights in the switch mixed up. So the white pic of the for is lighting up instead when you hit the switch
