are you wanting to put factory fog lights in the factory locations and are wondering if the wiring is there?

So the wiring is already ran from the bumper to the dash? So all I would need is the OEM fog lights and a switch for the dash?

It's funny, I actually just took mine off because I think it looks cleaner and meaner without the fogs. I never much used them anyway. I always felt they were just kind of stuck in there and messed with the lines of openings. But that's just me, I can totally understand other people liking them, especially with the bulbs color matched to the headlights. I'll be keeping them around though just so I have the option to put them back on.
