My truck did not come with fog lights, I found a set (used) that came with switch, wiring harness, and lights. Supposed to have come off of an '05 also, but the switch was wrong, no problem ordered a new one. I have the switch hooked up, lights bolted on, harness routed to fuse box under hood, got to the bottom side of fuse box but I cannot figure out where that wire plugs into. :help: I've got the relay added, the computer flashed, all I have to do is figure out where that stinking little purple wire plugs into. (At least I hope I don't need to do anything else?) Please let me know, I searched the other threads here and found out it was D6 on an 03-04 models. I just want to make sure it's the same on an 05. And is that D6 of the green cluster I assume since it is directly below the fog light relay and fuse?:confused:

did you look real close to see if the truck already had the wiring there, my 03 did
just a thought.

When I put the lights on I didn't see anything, I had the grille out last night to route the harness and didn't see anything. If the wiring is there I have no idea where they'd have it hidden.

mine was on top of the frame, it was clipped to another harness just over were the fogs go. you cannot see it from the top.
