Fog Lamp Wiring

[ledzilla]

I've discovered that my Marauder was involved in some sort of accident prior to my acquisition back in 2005. It became clear that the body shop did an incomplete job as they never replaced the clips for the bottom tab of the fog lamp brackets (you could push on them and the bottom would bend back into the bumper). Eventually they shook free and ripped out of the bumper cover. I found a pair of replacements on eBay, but it doesn't change the fact that the wiring is still screwed up. Does anyone know where to find replacement wiring leading to the lamps? I need the wires that run to the lamps as well as the harness connectors. Have no idea where to look for them. Although I suppose I could give the local Ford dealer a call...

I have spare foglight socket plugs (plug into the foglight bulb). As far as the harness, I highly doubt you can get them anywhere. You could easily make a harness.

I can make up the harnesses if I can get the right plug to connect to the non-foglight bulb side.

Thanks! I know I'd need the full harness plug as those on both sides corroded away and I had to splice them out and directly wire the fogs to the harness. Or, considering that, just the plugs and then I can slice and dice the wiring to hook them up. Either way, I know I have to give a little extra length to make up for what was lost in removing the harness connector. Even though they were "weather resistant", placing an electrical connector directly in front of the tires just seems like a bone head design idea.

PM me if you need anything.... I do have the foglight bulb plugs.

PM sent, good sir.
