You might want to try a local junkyard and just take some factory ones off of another truck. Wiring them is very easy to do but make sure you use a relay so you don't run all the power through the switch.

yea might look into it. the junkyards around here suck, they overprice and are really picky about letting people just go out and browse through stuff. that and there's only like 3 of them =(
maybe somebody could point me in the direction of just putting in everything piece by piece and wiring in a small aftermarket switch into one of the cubbies? The one next to the airbag switch keeps getting junk thrown in anyways lol

Truck is a 99 Ram 1500, Laramie SLT with a 360...
This one is a little steep!! But has everything I said before

+1... Provide a link Wyoming .


As far as white7wolf goes, you'll have to make the hole bigger in the gray plastic so they can fit in(or remove them). You'll also need to remove the black plastic top bumper cover to get the mounting bolts in.

That is a good deal for anyone that wants to add factory fogs/driving lights.

Thanks for the link! I now know sort of what to look for anyways, I'm all tapped out of money till next spring but the thoughts are spinning!
I wonder if it'd be possible to use the fog light switch that is built into the airbag switch. My buddy's 98 sport has it, and I actually almost prefer it. Think it'd be super hard with my 99 non-sport?

I think you could probably just buy the lights, cut the gray plastic pieces so they fit, then make youself a harness with a relay. You could put the switch anywhere you wanted it, you could even just tap it into the parking lights so anytime the parking lights are on, your fogs are too.

And way cheaper if you're on a budget...
