Adding fog lights, needing part #'s

Alright I just bought a 2010 and it Dosnt have fog lights. I'm looking for the part numbers, I think all I need is the light switch and the wirering, I've already got a bumper with the lights them selfs in them so I don't need that. Anyone ever done this if so do ya have the numbers I need or if that's all that's needed?
Thanks

Did it on my 08 DRW, if you don't want to use factory switch with factory wiring.

I used good wire a separate switch spliced the connectors on the lights solder them, heat shrink run switch in cab run power etc etc.

Ya I thought about doing it that way also, i just wasn't sure what the switch and wires cost if there cheap or not outrages I may just go that route.

Yup, was going use factory wiring and switch but, I forgot to order the switch and wiring when I ordered the lights for the dealer.

Been holding up for the past 4 years.

I added the OEM fogs to my XLT. Just wired them up to my number 4 up fitter switch and have worked fine for 7 years

I thought about this as well but I don't have up fitter switches.

Ive used the red and blue pushbutton led switches from the parts store with good success in the past. I used one to allow me to keep my duramax mirror heaters on versus a 20 min duration or whatever the factory is wired to do.

You could wire them to the factory switch and then wire that in yourself so they stay on.

Ya I may end up doing it that way I'm waiting on my local dealer to give me a price now we will see what it all cost.

8C3Z15A211A for the harness. SW-6454 for the switch without automatic lights. I got mine off of ebay for about $30 each. My 2010 was prewired, I believe there was a plug on the drivers side of the radiator where you plug the fog light harness harness into. I just used my dad's truck as a reference when running the harness.

Oh what a nightmare as I have been attempting to add factory Fogs to my 2009 F250 Super now for a few years and the more I research the more confusing it all gets. The OEM harness is 8C3Z15A211A as per Ford, does anyone know if the part offered aftermarket (BC3Z-15A211-A) will work and any changes needed?
