Default 2001 Dodge Neon Fog Light Installation

I am trying to install OE fog lights on a 2001 Dodge Neon. I bought the new light stem and that is installed.
I bought OE fog lights which will fit.
There doesn't seem to be wiring to accept the fog lights. Does anyone know if there is a separate harness to install for fog lights if they didn't come from the factory?

I have looked for someone selling wiring but no luck so far.

Any information will be greatly appreciated.

I'm actually doing the same thing, however on a 2003. The thing is doing this is hard because there are no kits available. There is the harness to the lights because most fog lights use the bulb #899. So you have the OEM fog lights, did it come with the bulb and the bezel to mount them? Also, do you plan on wiring it yourself and installing a switch or do you want it to look factory? If you want it to look factory go to the dealer and by the wiring harness and the new multifunction switch that will accomodate for the fog lights. It should be cake if you do that. If you want custom work, then there is a whole separate explanation.

I'm doing the custom work. So, I'm installing the fog lights and going to run them off of the parking lights which is available near the fog lights since the parking lights and the wires are right there. However, I'm running a relay in. That way, I can use the small guage wire of the parking lights to the relay and then have a main line from the battery. This will allow for the use of a tap to tap into the parking light wire but then a thicker guage wire straight from the battery to the relay. (I hope this is all making sense. I'll show you a site that somewhat helped me on producing a wiring diagram). It's really cheap too.

A relay and harness go for $2.95 and $5.95 (http://www.cardomain.com/item/SOUIEC...m=product_feed)
And the harnesses for the 899 fog light bulb is $3.49 (http://autolumination.com/headlights.htm and scroll down to Headlight Pigtail Socket Receptacles and then choose the 800 series pigtail and you'll need 2 of them).

Look at this site for an example wiring diagram. Just take off the fact that this person is installing "driving lights" and "fog lights"... http://coloradok5.com/wiringlights.shtml

Tell me a little bit more and maybe I can help draw up a diagram and some installation instructions. I taught myself all of this in the last 2 days, and am in the process of installing the fog lamps and wiring and so far so good. Just waiting for the relay harness from CarDomain Store.
