Foglight question
just orderd both factory foglights from lmc and a headlight switch w/fog from rockauto.com my truck already has the wires for the fogs on the truck at the front bumper but where is the other end of the harness? is it already by the switch? what else do i need to buy to get them working properly? thanks its a 09.

ya, i'm just curious as to the bulb that makes it glow... i want to change mine to blue but need to know what bulb it is
are you getting power to your switch? are you getting power to your relay? do you have the fuse installed? there is probably an empty spot on the fuse pannel

got em wired. they dont turn off when you turn on the highbeams nor does the fog light on the dash cluster( is there even one?) turn on but the work with the factory switch.
had to wire in my own relay and fuse
on to the pics (sorry for quality cell phone pics)and weezl heres what the leds inside the switch look like
the bulbs that came with the lights =booo. just put in silverstars no pic of them yet did my headlights too
working on the wiring
the 3 little squares are the leds weezl
my switches for my leds blue is for the front leds that light op the floor and green for the strips behind the seats.

still have a issue even with the silverstars they arnt very bright I dont think they are getting a full 12 volts what could cause that?
I have 12volts coming out of the switch going to the relay 14 guage wire. . the 12v constant is 10guage from the battery to the relay. ground from the relay to the fender is 14guage. and 14guage to the gray/black wire going into the the passenger side light.

yes, it could, but i would THINK that it would cause a voltage drop... if your wires aren't significant size to supply the wattage you need, it could cause the lights to be dim, however, i would expect that it would become very hot and burn through in short order...
so they are the little flat LED's eh?
