Stock Fog Light Help.
I have bought a stock bumper with the tow hooks and the holes for foglights. To replace my bumer that has none of that. I am wondering if anyone knows if the wiring is on my Jeep to plug in the fog light assembly? I have read PiginaJeeps bumper removal write up. But haven't actually done it yet. I want to wait until I found out about the wiring. Here is the picture from Piginajeep's write up.
Any help will be greatly appreciated!

doubtful... i think they try to be as conservative as possible, so if they were included, the wiring probably isn't there. you might be able to get the wire kit from a dealer, but dunno...
you can also just as easly hook them up like a set of KC lights with some toggle switch on the dash. Then you wouldn't suffer like the rest of us and have your fogs turn off when the hi-beams go on.

The wires were not there for my JK. There are wires that run behind the bumper but were ABS, EPS and the like. I created my own harness and wired them through a relay triggered by the low beams.
Mopar has a kit for adding fogs which includes the turnsignal switch for turning the fogs off/on and includes the necessary wiring seems like it was around $200 and came with square fog lights. Not sure if you can buy it without the lights or not.
I didn't do a writeup on my installation, but did take a few pics and could probably help you out if you want something similar to my setup.
