I am thinking of adding fog lamps to my truck. What can I look for to be sure that they will work. I want to get a factory type harness that will allow me to 'simply' install the lights where they go and plug the harness in. I'm sure I will have to add a switch in the cab for them. Is it that simple or not? There will probably be a relay needed too I'm sure.

Thanks.

So many options depending on what your starting point is, i.e. bumper style, trim level, and where you want to go, how OEM do you want to end up, etc....

Not really an answer, but you didn't give enough info in your question for anyone to truly help.

Will this switch work on my factory harness given that it didn't originally come with fog lamps?
You need to refer to the application chart in your link or ask the seller about that exact switch. But if you're asking in general terms if a factory fog light switch will function in your truck, that was covered in the link I posted.

Do note that those with 2006+ trucks write that they needed the sales code for fog lights flashed to their trucks.
