Hi I have a 08 F250 xlt with no fog lights or towing mirrors, I orderd the oem fog lights from ford for $48 a piece and the mirrors with heat power and light for $180 each dose anyone know how to wire them in? I know a little bit about wireing and i would play around with it, but if someone has done it and knows how it is done i would realy apreciate it. also if anyone has the wireing diagram for it i can use that to
thanks David

what are you planing to use for the fog light switch. i want to do the same thing on mine, have thought about using one of the built in pre wired switchs(forgot the name of them)

I was going to get the factory switch with auto on at night with the sensor but I don't want to buy the switch till I get a wiring diagram and see if it can be used if not I will just put in a toggle switch

I mounted my mirrors on Friday and they plugged in to the same spot as the old small ones did and the power mirror, the blinker, and the side light all work. all I did was plug it in.

If your mirror turn lights are working than the same thing will work for the fogs, just plug them in but you will need the harness and the switch. The plug for the harness is beside the drivers side headlight. Just run the harness from it to the fog light below and then to the passenger side. The mounting holes for the harness will line up. You will have to remove and reinstall a bumper bracket on each side to get the lights in. BTW, unlike the rest of the lighting system, the fogs will only work with the ignition on! I'm not sure about the auto on and that would be a nice feature! If you do it please let us know.
