Fog light wiring

My '98 F150 didn't come with fog lights. I have installed two that i aquired, but i want to wire them into my incab headlght switch. It has the standard ford headlight swtich in it, with pullout fog light activation, but i wouldn't have a clue how to wire it to my fog lights. I want to make sure they turn off when the high beams are on. I'm new at this stuff, but i want to learn all i can and make sure i do it right. Any help will be appreciated.

Foglight wiring is already there. But you'll need a new switch. Your switch doesn't have the parts to turn the lights on even though it will pull out.

I couldn't find the wiring. it' looked like it should have been obvious, but i'm pretty good at missing what's right in front of my eyes. the switch is easy, if you could tell me where the wires are, the rest is a piece of cake.

I was going to wire my aftermarkets into my stock harness to use the stock switch to activate the relay. I still haven't gotten around to it but from what I remember the stock foglight plug is seen here above the oil filter and is basically in the same place on the other side. They are easy to see with the bumper off but damn near impossible to see with it on.
