Default Fog lights

My truck does not have fog lights on the bumper. Is there an easy way to change the bumper and get fog lights installed?

Do you have the wires under there already? If you do is should be simple.. Head to a junk yard, find the lower bumper and install it.. I don't know what it would take to wire it.. Maybe as simple as running a switch to the cab with an inline fuse

Where would I find the wires. (I guess I'm a city boy looking to turn country). Lol

Here's how I found the wiring on a 99 Ranger I added factory fog lights.

Get on your back under the bumper, roughly were the lights would be. Look up and around for a set of plugs that are not connected. There will be a matching plug for the other side. If the wiring is in place, you will find a wire and plug. If you do, it's plug and play to hook up the lights. You should be able to find the wiring for the switch in the cab, if the wiring package is in.

It's common for Ford to prewire the truck for fog lights and other options. It's cheaper to install a wiring harness with everything rather than install different wiring for each unit.

Good Answer... I thought he was joking when he asked that...
