Purchasing Pig-Tails

Any idea where I could buy some wiring pig tails, specifically ones for fog lights? I stopped by the dealer and looked them up in their big pig tail chart and they don't sell them anymore? Otherwise ill just have to use individual terminal connectors, but i think the actual connectors look a lot cleaner and probably hold up to a lot more to moisture, dirt, and abuse than something cobbled together would.

You can get just about anything wire related at this place, only problem is that they tend to make purchase in bulk can't just get one plug.

Welcome to Waytek

Hey y'all. I ended up ordering a pair of Pico Brand 5461PT pigtails. I'm getting them from Summit Racing because they were the cheapest (surprisingly) and easiest to find. $3.97 a piece.

That link shows the plug is for a GM headlight.

Depends on if the connectors are the same for the GM headlights and the SuperDuty fog lights!

LOL, no I agree, it does look correct.

I should have been more specific and asked if the 9005 light where the harness plugs in is the same as the fog light connector.

I guess I just expect car makers to make things harder for us by making something simple like a fog light connector proprietary.

Yeah, I know what you mean... everyone has to make everything a little bit different. But I think these are the same.
