not sure if the wiring is there already but if it is you would need a different headlight switch and the actual headlights with fogs

Ive got the interior switch mate, thats there but never actually looked for the wiring part of things, when putting headlights on/off car does this mean the bumper comming off as ive seen a few pics of ppl doing this, or can they be taking off/on without removing it?

what switch do you have? there are 2 types, one with just rear fogs and one with front and rear fog positions

to change headlights bumper needs to come off to access the two bolts underneath
