    I want to put some fog lights on the front of my truck, Anyone have a straight forward way to get wires from the engine bay, into the cab so I can mount a switch to turn them on?
    Thanks

    As you are looking at the truck... Right or left side?

    +1 Gibo. That's where I ran mine and that rubber plug closes back nicely over the wires. Been there on my truck forever.

    Just curious what foglights you have there? Foglights are pretty rare nowadays. Mine are driving lights (clear) Hella 450s.

    "Fog lights" is a pretty generic term .. Sorry they are actually clear LED driving lights with a green ring around them. Got them on Ebay. Trying to give the truck some "cool factor" :)

    I carefully poked a hole through the rubber boot that factory wires run through. You have to be careful because you don't want to nick a wire on the other side.
