Fog light Wiring

I have a 2004 F150 Heritage 4.6 4X4 that didn't originaly have fog light cut outs in the valance so i bought an aftermarket valance that has the cut outs and put it on my truck. I then bought the fog lights online from autopartsdeal.com but they did not come with mounting hardware or the necesarry wiring. Does anyone know of a place that i would be able to get them?? Thanks

Gerrit

You can make your own harness with some time and a minimal investment in parts and tools, plus you will expand your mental tool box.

PM me if you want to know how to wire it up.

You can also buy replacement kits (wires, relay, and generic switch along with all wire taps splicers and eyelets needed) from walmart.

Do you know which method you're planning on installing it?
Also, are you using a stock fog light switch or an aftermarket one?

Before you buy any of the wiring, take a look under the bumper in the area where the lights go. My 2003 did not have factory fog lights, and I picked up the valance and lights on ebay. The truck was pre-wired for the fogs. Just had to untape them and pull them down to the area where they needed to be.

I got the factory switch from Rock Auto for somewhere around $25 or $30 dollars I believe. This was back in 03 when I bought my truck new.

Once I hooked everything up, they worked great. Did not have to add any relays or fuses, since they were already installed from the factory.

Take a look and see if you find the wires. I don't remember the colors off hand, but come back and let us know if you have them.
