Default Headlight switch

Ok, so, I want to get some OE foglights for my truck. I checked and the harness is behind the bumper, but it didn't come stock with the foglights. I'm wondering if anyone knows where I can get the correct headlight switch that pulls out to turn on the foglights. Anyone know? (I'm a little confused by the fact that it already has the harnesses, but the switch doesn't have the foglight capability since my Jeep had the harness and the switch, but not the lights)

I think that when you get the lights it will come with a dash mounted switch for the lights.

I installed mine and my SLT package came with the wire harness too with no lights, when you order the MOPAR foglights, itll come with the 2 holes for the lights (instead of the horizontal bars) the 2 foglights, and the incab switch that allows you to pull the headlight *** for the fogs to come on... it was a pretty simple install, 1/2 hour, 1hr if your a noob (like i was )

BTW it took ya long enough to get those dam foglights charles lol... its been on your sig forever!

Through makeitmopar.com, it's about 180 for the set. They claim a savings of about 60, but I'm sure you can get them fairly new off ebay cheaper (actual OE parts, not the crap parts)

well,......speaking of Noob, I have an 05 ram slt. I've been told by quite a few folks that my truck is prewired for fogs, but i can't find the darn wire lead. I think its toward the driver's side. Anyone have a picture? Or a copy of the instructions? My dealer sold me the fog kit that uses a harness, and seperate switch. I bought a factory headlight switch with fogs, now if I can only find the prewired harness in the truck, I'd be cookin.
Thanks, Brian
