Default Gt fog light wiring

Well I finally ordered the Gt front bumper from Brenspeed. Should be in this week.I already have the GT grill with the fog lights and have a question. My V-6 doesn't have any lights in the grill ( no pony package), I've seen kits for the wiring and switch online, but I want to keep it stock looking. Does the pony package have the pullout switch? Shouldn't all our V-6's have the same wireing harness in them? If so, could I just buy the switch and pigtail for the fog lights?

Here is the one that I have in my car. You can use it with a GT (pony) switch and it will be just like a stock installation. By the way, the picture of your car looks great, but it looks like it already has the GT grille

Well thats the same one I've been thinking about. But I read this part and don't want the little rocker switch.[*]On GT switch application – system uses the green switch L.E.D. and works just like a stock application.[*]On V6 applications, included toggle switch gives a nice O.E.M. appearance.
Mu avatar is of some mustang on the internet, I didn't know how to upload my picture till just a few days ago, Guess I should change it! Here's a picture of mine right now.

It'll look great with the GT grille. Right now, I'm having one painted for mine.

i had the same question before i orderd my one..you have to drill a hole in your existing light switch and its a flip on/off switch you insert..it looks real clean and functions the same way as a GT switch..if you really want the gt switch its like $60 more so id stick with what they are giving you.

-That seller is really good, i got mine in about a week with no problems.
Installation looks easy, i havent installed it yet because im waiting for my bumper.

Here is how Iwired mine.
I used an OEMGT headlight switch for that OEM appearance.
Plus my dash dings at me like OEM when I leave accidentally them on.

I have the same wire kit from stangwires on Ebay. I have it hooked up to a GT switch so I didn't have to drill a hole or anything. I have the Street Scene center fog light grill. I put the grill in and ran the wire by myself. Real easy to do.

Thanks guys. I want to keep it factory, so just the oem pullout switch. 157db, were you able to use and of the factory wire harness? I didn't get time yet to study your scymatic. I would think that ford would use one wiring harness for the V-6, so one should be able to use the factory swirch and then find where the pigtails to the lights should be and buy some pigtails and plug and play. But then again I thought this way on the front bumper and was dead wrong! Has anyone looked for the harness to see if there is a place to put the pigtails? I don't know anyone else with a stang to look.

No, I didnt have a PP so no factory harness.
I wired into the GT headlight switch by cutting
the wires shown and hooking up to them as shown.
There are no pigtails on a non-PP stang.
