Help with wiring fog lights!!!

'13 GTs sold in Canada don't come with the same front grille as the ones sold in the US, but rather with what appears to be a V6 grille. Since we require daytime running lights, Ford equips Canadian GTs with small fog lights in the bumper valence (same as the CS). These lights act both as DRL's and as fog lights (when the fog light switch is activated).


I really didn't like the looks of my grille, so I picked up one from a US 2013 GT, complete with fog lights right in the grille.

Question: how I can hook up the fog lights in the grille so that they come on at the same time as the low beam headlights? I can always run a separate switch for them, but I'd rather avoid that... Any suggestions as to where I could connect these lights, and if possible does anyone have a wiring diagram?


Thanks!

You can purchase a wiring harness that comes with a new (OEM) headlight switch from Starkey Products. I'd call them to make sure it will work with the 2013 cars, but I can't think of a reason that it wouldn't. I used their harness to add GT lights to my 2012 V6.
