When the bulb-out relay triggers, it passes current through a 1.2W bulb - and its internal switch is probably rated for about this amount...not the 110W of a pair of fog lamps.

You can salvage Hella 30-amp relays from many Euro cars in the PnP, or brand new Bosch (or clones) automotive relays are available from Jameco.com or Partsexpress.com for less than $3. Order the relay sockets at the same time and cut down on your wiring hassles.

A 16-page booklet on wiring Bosch-type relays for a multitude of purposes is available here:
