97 bumper Fog lights
Hey all, so I have recently been looking to add to my Trucks aesthetics by installing fog lamps in the front bumper. as i have found there were 2 different bumper styles with built in fog lamps, and i would like to either find an after market stock housing or a good fog lamp set up that fills the opening in the bumper. i dont wanna just wedge a light behind the opening and call it a day. if anyone has any suggestion as to what they have on their trucks or where i could find a good lamp that would be very well appreciated. thank you.
i have attached a pic of my truck so you guys know which bumper style i have

If you can find a set of OEM fogs from a 97 or 98, grab them! They're far better than the 99-03 fogs that were the result of a cost down. If that doesn't work, it's fairly easy to mount a set of aftermarket lights behind the grill as I did on my 97, 99 and 02 trucks. There's a FRP cross member that runs horizontally across the front of the radiator that's almost perfectly placed for them.

Fair enough, but are you able to run the fog lights with just the ambers on? Ive only owned 1 other vehicle with stock fog lights and they could only be turned on with the headlights and i really dislike that. And where did you acquire the fog lights themselves? Junkyard or do you know a good aftermarket site?

I'm not sure is the same bumper on the F250 too? Pretty sure you need to stay with either 97' or 98'
then there is RA http://www.rockauto.com/en/catalog/f...p+assembly,803
It couldn't hurt to check the local salvage yards

You would need a relay to power the fog lights. Use the parking light positive to trigger a relay that would turn on the fogs. The only problem with that is that fogs would always be on when parking or head lights were on. Easier yet you could use a toggle switch to activate the fogs and you could turn them on at will.
