    Yeah.
    Relay was not installed on my 2009, but it was pre-wired. Lights, relay and switch should be correct, but you can see if the relay is there pretty easily.

    Groovy, thanks TeenBeers, where would I look for the relay?

    Oh also do you know what the other black with the 5 wire plug is far or goes to?

    Again thanks

    Yeah.
    I am at work, could not see your images, so I'm not sure about the 5 wire plug.

    There is a black box containing the relays above the driver's fender well. I don't remember if it has a diagram in it, but you can probably find a diagram online if it doesn't.

    Just a few LEDs...
    You should be able to simply buy a switch and a relay. The relay installs in the small box next to the main fuse box under the hood.

    Yeah.
    Now I see your picture. That slot with the 5-wire plug is where my inverter switch is (120V to the outlet in the bed).

    10-foe That is exactly what they told me at the dealership when I brought it there for an issue this morning:

    Thanks

    Oh any recommendations for a set of yellow fog lamps?

    Yeah.
    These should plug right in, you won't need the included wiring. Not sure what the blanks in your bumper look like, so I'm assuming that you need the surrounding plastic housing. They have chrome ones as well (yuck, not my thing, but might be yours).

    I would recommend getting some clear silicone and putting it around the edge of the lens as extra seal protection.

    Hey thanks for the link

    My blanks are just like that is shown in the picture.

    Am I seeing that correct , the kit includes both the switch and the relay at that price?

    Here's a pic of the front of my trucK
