'04 OEM Foglight Switch Help

Can anybody help me out? I've added a second OEM foglight switch to my bezel to run a set of Hella 500s. I have the pigtail for the switch from the donor truck. Does anybody have the color codes for the wiring-as far as which wire is used for which function: Dash lighting, indicator light, ground, power, ect. I tried a search, but didn't have any luck.
Thanks
MikeR

I have an '01 and this is how it's wired:

Ground.................Black
Panel Illum...........Light Blue/ Red
Fog Relay............Light Blue/ Black
Indicator...............Tan/ Orange

Again this is for my '01, I don't know if your trucks year is different.

Hope this helps...

im trying to do the same thing... what wires do i need to hook to what.. Ive had the hellas wired in for a year with the hella switch. I found a foglight switch bezel and im adding it on(doing LED mod too) I have the harness hooked up in the truck the way it came from the factory.

If i plug the switch in without any modifications and then turn on my headlights the switch illuminates. Which wires do i need to clip and tap into to make it work.
I have 3 wires going to my lighted hella switch

The hellas are relayed to the parking lights

I had added factory fogs and relayed those to the parking lamps

I got mine all hooked up this morning. Took a bunch of pics-I will try to get how-to worked up and posted to HowTo section today. Works like a charm thanks to Bob's (rwenzing) help.
