I have the barn doors, so looks like they'll just stay where they are. Are there any easily attachable goodies that could hook up to these?

Well i think i saw three unused wires when i took of my bezel so it would be somthin like this tahoe which has all the goodies, lift gate, rear wiper, and the factory fogs so im thinkin if i get the switch and the fog lights themselves and see where the wires run up to i can have OEM Foglights!!!

The two bottom pictures show the three wires. The 2nd pic has two connectors, and the third pic has the third. I am definitely going to look into getting the factory fog lights. Seems like it should be a pretty straight forward install. I'll keep everyone posted. Any tips on a good place to look for the OEM lights?

Search on google tahoe limited there on the bumper and if you install the lights i would suggest buying the bumper off LMC truck cuz since it's for a limited/z71 it will be hard to find in a junk yard Goodluck anyway!!!

Didn't say you would but u have t have the barn door's and it has to be a 98-99 but not all of them have the foglight wire so if u do then ur lucky and it will take u less work to install oem foglights.

are there fog lights that would hook up to the wiring harness that I have now that would be more powerful/useful than the OEM lights? and maybe easier to attach to a stock bumper then having to buy a whole bumper from a Z71 etc. I do want to the get the OEM switch to match the interior. Any ideas on where to get that?

I am having a hard time find the OEM fog light switch, but I was able to pick up the cargo light switch at a junk yard here for a couple bucks. Is it possible to use it for fog lights? It has four pins versus five in the fog light switch. Any slight mods I could to it to make it work?
Also, where would I look for the other end of the harness where I would attach the lights. I think I am going to buy these lights for it: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00029X3QW/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER

As for the wires im thinkin they should be under the bumper or somewhere around there cuz in my tahoe i looked behind the rear bumper and i saw a wiring harness for the towing package which i dont have but i can get and hook up sorta like plug and play should be the same for foglights ill be checking under my bumper as well.
