C43 Front Bumper upgrade/ fog lamps

Yeah so i finished doing my C43 front Bumper upgrade this past weekend with the fog lamps and absorbers. Just one question, when I bought the fog lamps i got the AMG Harness adapters for the foglamps, in the Mercedes Star WIS, it states that the fog lamps in the headlamps will no longer be used, how ever can both the lower fog lamps and headlamp fog lamps be both used at once? i couldnt find an answer on the WIS/EPC. So I am here asking for some help thanks

Fog lamp harness

I'll be doing the same swap this weekend and wanted to add the foglamps. I was wondering where you got the harness adaptors. I've heard many people talk about them but i'm having trouble finding them even at dealer. Thanks for your time.

202-440-03-07 adapters foglamps to headlamp takes 1per side
170-820-01-56 left foglamp
170-820-02-56 right foglamp

Have fun, don't forget to cut the reinforcement tabs in the inner of the bumper 202-880-01-52 and to move the left and right horns (loosen them and make sure that they don't block the foglamps, I turned them 180 degrees where the horns were facing down to face upwards so the moment you slide the bumper with the foglamps installed will fit on perfectly.)
