Title pretty much says it all, I'm putting a second set on and need to know what gauge the wires are for the factory fog lights. It looks like 16 but feels like a 14 so I want to make sure I get it right.

I got a second set of factory fog lights for free, they just didnt come with the wiring so im going to splice them into the already existing ires from my original fogs like AlmightyCrash did on his bumper mod with the extra set of factory fogs.

So use 14 and not 16?

Like hawgrider1200 said, go with the 14 and your safe. No drawback to it and you won't have to wonder if it's OK every time you flip the lights on.
