: Installing Factory Fog light Have questions

So I have been trying to read up as much as I can.

It seems that most trucks do not ned the BCM reprogrammed.

There is a GM Fog light kit for around $190 but since I have a 06 Front Valence with the foglight holes cut out already I would rather not go that route.

Some Trucks have the foglight harness from the Fuse box to the fogs already installed. If it is present where would it be? Pics would be great if anybody has them.

I am hoping to buy some housings off EBay and the Relay and switch and be ready to go.

well you could look under the truck where the fog lights would be and see if the plugs are tied up there somewheres

id say you need it though

do you have a fog switch on your dash?

I went ahead and got the kit the dealer should have it in tommorow.

I don't see any wiring and that way I will have eveything I need for sure rather than piecing stuff together.

I paid a little more from the dealer but I have time off of work to do the install now.

The parts guy thought I needed the BCM flashed lets hope not;)
