Default Fog/driving lights ?

Hey folks,
Was under the front of my Dak for an oil change, just looking around (been over a year, deployed) and noticed some wires and hook ups. I do not have factory or aftermarket driving lights, trying to find out if maybe they were pre-wired for a set up? Any ideas?
Thanks
Birk

You'll need to do two things:
  1. You'll need a new headlight switch that also turns on the fog lights.
  2. And you'll need to have a dealer activate the fog lights with their Starscan.

He'll probably also need to buy the fog lights and put them on.

You only need 3 thing to install them.
1. OEM Headlight Switch with FOG and Cargo Options.
2. OEM Style Fogs and Assembly
3. Get it star-scanned

Other then that, all you need to do is either, Cut out the Holes in your Non-Fog Bumper and living with it not looking super nice. or Buy a OEM/After market Bumper Cover with the Fog Holes in it. I plan todo this sometime, lol
