PIAA driving light install

Anyone have pics or can take pics of their PIAA driving or fog light install? More specifically the wiring? I have a 2004 SCrew and have the lights installed on the bull bar already but need some help on the wiring. How do I get the switch wire through the firewall? What connection wire on the truck are you tapping into?

I cant get you pictures but i did a similar type of install with five lights on the front.

It will be a very simple install if you bought the switch kit for the lights because everything is already pre wired to the relay and all you have to do is hook to a power, ground and run the "turn on" wire to the switch inside the cab.

Now for the positive wire you need to tap in to under the dash. I believe there is a wire diagram floating around on this site of the new F-150. It will give you the colors of the postive and negative wires running throughout the vehicle. You can also get a voltmeter and check the voltage of the wires under the dash by taking a needle and putting it into the wire you are wanting to test!

There is a pre-drilled hole in the firewall with a grommet. It is on the driver side and is not too hard to miss if you are looking at it from under the hood.

If you do not have a switch kit, the install will take a small amount of electrical knowledge to install. I can help guide you through the connections if this is the case....

Found the hole to get me through the firewall. The light kit came with the switch and all the wiring harnesses. I will just need to figure out which wires are hot. I would like to be able to turn these on at any time without the headlights being on.
