They are the same ones I used for the bed lights. I forgot the brand but I got them off amazon, they came in a 16 foot spool and where like $13 I think. They were really easy to wire up, I just spliced them into the bed lights

Went up to the junk yard yesterday and pulled off the right fog light from a junker. Mine has been cracked and filled with water since I have owned the truck. It's nice to now have working fog lights.
Coming soon
Tuner (more than likely sct)
E-fans
Under drive pulleys (overdrive altinator pulley)
Ultra star head lights and fog lights
Lightning headlights
I'm hoping to have the headlight and fog light bulbs with in the next few weeks, and the tuner by the end of March. Who knows when I'll get the E-fans, depends if I find any at the junk yard.

Haven't updated this in a while but since I have gotten 2 led rigid knock off off road lights behind the grill and I have replaced my sway bar linkages. I also just ordered an SCT tuner with 3 MPT custom tunes. I got an 87 performance/chill, 89 performance/street, and a 93 performance/street. I also wired my fogs so I can turn them on with the parking lights and with high beams

I got my custom tunes about 2 weeks ago and I love them! It's a night and day difference.
One of my tires just blew out and all the other ones are in such bad a shape the they either won't pass inspection or won't make it to the next inspection. So it looks like I will be getting a new set of tires soon. I'm looking at getting the tread Wright gaurd dogs in 285/70/17. Money is tight right now so I will be buying the tires one at a time and hopefully be getting one of them next month for my birthday. Now that I'm bumping up to 285s I can start saving up for a body lift. I am expecting to be sitting on a 3 inch body lift this time next year with the new tires on the truck hopefully around Thanksgiving or sooner.
O I also went to the exhaust shop yesterday and got a tip welded on. 25 bucks got me a 3x8 tip. Looks and sounds great on my magnapack system

Changed my rear diff fluid today, also painted the cover while it was off. Just used some bed liner on it. Next up is the front diff and transmission fluid. I'm also planning on painting the frame and underside of the truck soon. Just haunt decided if I want to use POR-15 or just some bedliner. I heard the POR-15 chips easy, and its expensive. What do y'all think?

Havnt update this in a long time. But since then I have got black lightning heads, 6 inch LED bars that I replaced my fog lights with, a rear cat delete, and I will be getting wheels in the very near future. This is the only pic I have of the new lights. I'll try to get some day time shots later on
