Just followed your video to install them on my LBZ. Thanks for the video! Made it very simple and easy to understand. And man does it look so much nicer! Next up are those mirrors you got! Ties it all in so nicely 👍🏼
You made this look soo easy. For someone like me who's a little challenged on wiring it may take me a few days lmao, now to try to install my fogs on my '03 ecsb. Nonetheless great video, new subscriber.
Thanks bro for the video I appreciate it a lot. I just did my instal this weekend followed all your steps and I took me a good hour or 2 but got it done. I went to a shop and was given a $200 estimate. I paid $24 for a relay and they were tryna charge me $40 for it lol
Your rig looks great with those lights.. just needs some wider meats on those killer rims to protect them from damage. They wouldn't last on the roads in the northeast like that. If you have smooth roads and no snow well I guess you can get away with it. The fogs were a good idea. I'm gonna do some rock lights next !
Just FYI, the wiring and fuse boxes on 99-02s are totally different from the 03-07s. The 03-07s are simple plug and play like this video shows, but on the 99-02s, the fog lights are controlled by the body control module. So installing fog lights using the factory switch on 99-02s require programming the body control module before they will work.
I get everything perfect up to the fuse block then can’t get past the fog light switch. I have been through 2 switches and both of them have had the same issue. The cargo light switch works but the fog light switch will not stay in to the on position. 2006 GMC Sierra 2500HD 4x4
Hey Nate thanks for the video. I have the switch and connectors ordered from Amazon. Thanks for making that easy with links. Can you please provide the link for the relay at advance so I can be sure to get the right one? Thanks it would be much appreciated. I just finished rewiring my bumper lights from half DRL/half parking/turn to both bulbs being park/turn but wired to the DRL circuit so they come on when the original DRL's came on. I also did the 4 on High mod a few years ago. With that mod the DRL's stay on with the headlights and the low beams stay on with the high beams. Thanks again.
I ran my lights exactly like yours all I’m missing is the bulbs and the relay how do you connect the pigtail wire did you do it together to one wire or separate the pigtail wire
Excellent. I will do the same thing in my silverado. Tell me about the bulb light, what is the number and the color and if their are led hid xenón or what kind please.
Had an issue, I wired everything correctly and put the pin in the correct spot (D6) but when I hit my fog light switch my parking lights turned on instead of my fog lights, checked everything on the outside but everything was done correctly, can I have someone’s opinion on what went wrong?
I have OEM fog lights on my truck but the guy that owned it before me cut the pigtail off and removed the foglight after he had a minor fender bender. I'm assuming I should be able to splice into the existing wire and add a new pigtail into it and just plug the new foglight in?
Hey thanks, your video hit the mark for me. I have an 03 std cab, so I found a Avalanche bumper with factory fog lights and an extra 'bottom of the bumper' air deflector. But I also don't have the fog light factory harness. I found a pre-wired fog light harness with a loom covering, essentially "plug and play" for Silverado on Amazon..and I had a fog light button that lit up a dash indicator when pushed...there was a 15amp fuse next to where I discovered the empty relay spot. You supplied the missing info about where the power wire went into the relay....but then I had a question.....why did you replace the fog light OEM switch with the other with two buttons?
So I tried your method and I grounded it in the same location but my fog lights flicker when driving and pressing the brake.. What could it be? Bad ground. Bad battery maybe. Please help.
I was wondering the same thing. I have a 2002 Silverado also with no pre existing fog lights or switch. I’m going to try the installation next week. Did it work for your 2002?
You showed were you instaled the fog wirer in the fuse block but were is the power wire , the wire to activate the relay and the ground for the relay ? Are they already there in the truck harness ?
Yes. The wire I installed acts as the power wire for the lights. The relay connecting to the power is already installed in the factory harness. I grounded the lights to the frame behind the bumper
What did you do for the lights that are hanging out of the back? Bc I used leds and they have fans on the back and are pretty exposed to water mud ect.. any certain way you protected them from getting wet?
Most of the time the headlight led's have the fans on them! I swapped out my headlight bulbs for a set of "Firehawk" led's & they are sweet! I just cut a hole in the back of the rubber dust caps for the fans and no water even makes it close inside my fender wells. I have a bigger set of dust caps for more air circulation but the stock ones are doing fine! I have those Auxbeam led's in my tail lights & turn signals with resistors on the turn signals only & they all are excellent 👍🏾 2005 Trailblazer. Everything is led's except the front turn signals and dash lights. You can see my rear license plate a mile away 😁 Love led's 🥰
Split loom is the proper covering for automotive wiring. The loom functions to protect wires from abrasion and to keep wires together for routing. That stuff you ran the wires through means you have to cut into it or slip it off from one end to access the wires. Any good home or professional mechanic always installs with the knowledge that EVENTUALLY SOMEONE will have to access that area again. Don't make it harder on them. 5 minutes of your time today saves HOURS of your time in the future.
Wow, every other video says you have to have the body module reflashed if the vehicle didnt come with fog lights. Did you? Also what year is your truck? Dont know if the 2003 switch will work as some people say yes, some say no, because the electrical system components were changec in 2003.. Hope you see this and I get a reply, thanks.
@@NaztyNate I am about to do this to my 03.. OEM without fogs, and added Avalanche bumper from 05, and I'm wondering about this re-flash for fog lights to work. Guess I'll try it and see.
All of the 99-07 classics have the connectors on the harness already. they hide them up in the frame. all you need is the OEM switch, the fog light relay and the lights. No need to make a harness if you are using OEM fog lights.
@@jerryserafine4386 so you mentioned that the OEM fog light connector is capped and behind bumper on passenger side...does that mean I need to provide dual plugs to connect power to the lights connectors from that capped connector?
Thank you that was the best fog light insulation video I’ve ever seen
Was unsure about doing this but your video made it very easy to follow, truck looks good man👌🏻
I want to I install a set on my 2005 Trailblazer. Nice install my brudda👍🏾
Thanks!
It's a pretty boy truck! Looks nice. Hey excellent techniques in building up the wiring harness. Real professional approach for others to follow.
Great job! This was the one video that actually helped me. Even giving links where to find everything. Much appreciated!
That's exactly what I was hoping for! No problem! Thanks!
How do I do the grounds? Do I take wires from each end?
@@dakotaneedham145 Yes, a ground will come from each light. Then those two ground will meet together (where he shows the yellow connector that screws to the frame).
Nice video man perfectly detailed also that’s a badass truck. I’ve got an 06 cat eye single cab.
Thanks man! Gota love the single cabs!

What shop would you recommend? I been looking for a place
That is definitely the way looks Nazty
your wheels look sick,love it
Thank you!
Awesome Video Nate!!!!!
Looks great I like that look I got some new headlights for Christmas I'm thinking about putting fog lights in now
Gota love the look of fogs!

Kudos 👏 ma8 great instruction, doing some mods on my handed down silverado appreciate the vid.
Sweet video Nazty dude!
Thanks for watching!
Trying to find the fog light relay wire terminal part number or place where to get them to plug into fuse panel any help would be great thank you
Sept 2021 Hey, finally got around to installing fogs. Your video gottr done! Thanx! enjoy all your vids.
Nice!!

Ahhhh I'm so glad you said that. TOTALLY forgot the 99-02 is much different wiring
Looks killer man. Now take off all those side badges and tint the windows already!
Great information thanks nice truck!
You are the men! Thank you for share
Thank you!
Great how to! Looks awesome!
Thank you! Love the look of them!!
Glad you showed the connector wiring close up, my connector ends had black wire on both sides so I needed a reference as to positive/negative.
Electric resistive loads like bulbs are not polarity specific. Bulbs work no matter which wire is positive or neg.
Nice work
So yourBCM HAD the driving light programmed
I get everything perfect up to the fuse block then can’t get past the fog light switch. I have been through 2 switches and both of them have had the same issue. The cargo light switch works but the fog light switch will not stay in to the on position.
2006 GMC Sierra 2500HD 4x4
U don’t have to tap the ground into the power wire ?? I’m confused to I have a whole 2 extra wires put together for ground eight ??
Do I need to disconnect either the positive or negative battery terminal by having to take out and put in the pin in the fuse box?
You should paint the bar behind the grill black. I did mine and it looks a lot better.
I actually did that not too long after this video! Looks much better!
Great tutorial
Can you explain to me the grounds? What’d he do and how?
Man that's how I want my 2005 single cab how much you think it cost too do all this work from stuck I like you stikers 👌
Great video!
Thanks!
I did the whole rewiring but my lights still don’t turn on. I haven’t replaced the switch and the relay, could that be why they not turning on?
very detailed video
Will the same technique work for a 2000? And if so what relay did you use?
What kinda headlight bulbs did you end up putting thanks for the video
It's looking good as he'll boy,,,,mike
Thanks man!
great video,now i know how to hook them up on the bumper, gmc sierra should be similar.. thanks
Should be very similar!
Honestly don’t know what I’m doing wrong, got a universal kit from Amazon and I stripped it to make it basically this, not sure what I’m doing wrong

you just won another follower, great job👍🏼
Where did you get your front bumper pad?
You can get the pads from an aftermarket parts place, they’re pretty common
Had an issue, I wired everything correctly and put the pin in the correct spot (D6) but when I hit my fog light switch my parking lights turned on instead of my fog lights, checked everything on the outside but everything was done correctly, can I have someone’s opinion on what went wrong?
If you’re pre 03, I believe it’s green fuse connector A3, not D6 that is for 03-07 classic
Did you ever figure that out? Having the same issue with my truck
Do you have to get your bcm flashed
Nope! Will work once you plug in the relay
What kind of headlights do you have? I need those on mine. Looks sweet
They are just generic black housing lights from Amazon
For the pigtail, did you connect the two wire to one wire. An what kind of wire did you use
I have OEM fog lights on my truck but the guy that owned it before me cut the pigtail off and removed the foglight after he had a minor fender bender. I'm assuming I should be able to splice into the existing wire and add a new pigtail into it and just plug the new foglight in?

Hey bro can you link whichever fog light harness you bought please thanks ...
What bulbs do you have in your headlights?
Man I did all these steps and mine still won’t come on. What could’ve went wrong
Got to flash ur ecu
Did you connect that one pigtail wire to one wire
What size is that connector for the fuse box
Hello sir, can we use a harness kit from amazon and connect it to the OEM fog lights button?
So I tried your method and I grounded it in the same location but my fog lights flicker when driving and pressing the brake.. What could it be? Bad ground. Bad battery maybe. Please help.

Are you not putting the fender flares back on? It doesn't look too bad cleaned up.
I did put them back on! But I actually filmed this video the day before I put them back on.. Lol
Do you think the smoke housings would be as bright? And did you use a 3157 equivalent LED bulb? Thanks!

I added the links to the bio! Hope it helps!
Yessir it did. Thanks man. 😎
Question where did u find the lower bumper ether readyyy for prime or white already
Its the stock bumper that I had painted
What LEDs you have
Those were AuxBeam
Hey man where did you get your black bowtie and grill from? I have a 2004 2500HD that i'm wanting to black out the front! Thanks for the content!
The grill is factory. The bowtie, I took off and painted gloss black with gloss clear with spray paint.
You can buy them from LMCtrucks.com
@@Crudedeath99 Awesome! Found me a new website to order from, lol thanks!
No problem, I'm lucky enough to live in Kansas city so I can walk in and purchase parts on the spot
When you turn off the truck do the fog lights turn off by themselves or do you have to manually turn them off yourself?
They turn off!
How bright were the fog lights, really looking into getting some
Definitely worth it
Is there a way you can sell me a made wire harness already lol it’s a good way very easy but I’m too lazy lol 😂
For what truck? Reach out on instagram if you want
