Crawl up under the front bumper, and look for a pigtail of wires ziptied up near where the bumper supports are welded to the frames. If you can't find them, I can take a picture of where mine are on my 2001.

Let me know

Is it the little oval looking connector thats blue on one end? It looks like its connects to a bulb with 2 prongs to me.

I would just hook them up yourself, and put in a toggle switch underneath the dash, that way you don't have to have your headlights on whenever you want to turn on your fogs.

I'm pretty sure the HD, L, and F150 fogs all wire up to the same connector.

There is a guy on here by the name of Patman03SprCrw. Do a member search for him. He put a STX lower valance with HD fogs on his 2003 Screw. He will be the one to ask....

Hey LOHfootball53, I was wrong. L and HD fogs use different connectors and bulbs. But all you need to do it cut off the the one on there now and wire the new one on there. Not too hard.

Talk to Patman03SprCrw if you have anymore questions....
