I recently installed an aftermarket fog light kit and when looking for ign power for the switch I found that my ign post in firewall mounted relay/connector box is being used for my Xmas radio box.
Can I piggyback this as I believe it only switches the relay
Thanks

There are actually several keyed (ignition key) posts in that "junction box" near the brake pedal.

on my 2012 Denali all of the post's in the junction box are all occupied, you can safely tie into a keyed accessory if it is just providing switched power to the relay it wont hurt anything.

I see Tahoes with DRL and DRL + Fogs. Is that by default or did the driver turn them on? I know you'll run the life of the bulb down but I really like that look.

I had seen a fog light kit on ebay. It was a little salty but it had a new headlight switch and wiring harness with it.
