    The baby blue wire is from the for relay pin 85. The white with black stripe is the fog ground. Both of these are on the connector you cut. The solid green is also in the fog connector you cut.
    For your add-a-fuse, choose a ACC circuit in the cab fuse box. You can use a lower amp fuse on the top slot of the add-a-circuit, but most likely the lowest in store is 5A.

    This and that...
    One last bit of advice. Below is basically what I used to get my switch to do what it needs to. This already has the relay connected, you just have to use the factory connectors instead of what comes with the harness. Hook it to your battery and switch and you have anytime fog mod and your switch working. Other brands make a similar harness too. Just an idea...

    Did you get this to work? Only reason im asking is the stock fog light switch does not light up when you turn it on. And if your trying to use the stock harness its not wired that way. ( if im wrong please correct me)You will have to tap into the light circuit. When idid mine i just jumped wires to the switch next to it until i got the right wires. Its only two wires. Use a volt meter and watch the meter fluctuate when using the dimmer

    here’s how i did it

    black to black/white (ground)
    red 2 to green (+12v dash)
    red one to blue (relay)
    green to green/white (dash ground)

    works like a charm.
