    My truck is a 2010 SR5 4x4 Toyota Tacoma
    I recently purchased some Cali Raised LED Foglights and I'm not sure if my truck is pre-wired for foglights.
    Their was wiring where the blank switches were located on the dash. I read in other forums that that connection in the far left is for the fog lights which is great.
    My issue is I cannot find the plug-ins near where the fog lights are located on the bumper/hood.
    Does anybody know where they'd be if they were there? Is my truck even pre-wired even though there are connections on the dash?
    I can post more pictures for you guys if it can give you a better idea of what is going on.
    thank you !

    My sr5 has the fog light switch on the top row far left. That may be it. Good luck

    So your SR5 was pre-wired? Were you able to find the pre-wired connections to the fog lights on the bumper?

    Check behind the fog light panel on the bumper to see if you have the wires there and match up the colored wires to either of those connectors. Keep in mind one may be grounded to the body somewhere and not continue to the stage other.

    All stock switches for fogs are top left in 2nd Gen.

    yep..
    My 09 had no fogs, nor switch harness, nada. From what I read before, if you lay on your back and look up to where the fogs should be, if your truck is pre wired, you should see a harness tied up above where the lights go.

    Also, I believe the harness that plugs into the fog switch is either green or black.

    Looking at your photo, I think you're pre wired. (Left most switch bay), if you have that black plug, I'm betting you have some plugs up above, behind your fog openings.

    This is what I see above where the fog lights go. I don't see a harness or anything. Do you know where it would be if its not near the fog lights?

    Skip to around 9 minutes in this video. He discovers his truck is pre wired. If you don't have those plugs then you will have to wire it yourself, which isn't difficult.
