Foglight help????

[Wikkdgt]

I have a 2000 GT, but I just had an 03/04 Cobra bumper and hood put on since I wrecked it. Anyways the new Cobra foglights won't match up to the GT foglight harness plugs-ins. Ford doesn't sell just the plug-ins. They said I had to buy the entire lighting harness. Outragious price, like 600 or 900 dollars, I can't remember exactly. Anyways I was wondering if anyone knows of a company that might sell the plug-ins or even the entire harness alot cheaper. Or could I possibly just hardwire the wires into the back of the foglights? I doubt any local junk yards are going to have a wrecked 03/04 Cobra laying around. Thanks in advance.

cut the 2 harnesses, splice them together, i installed quad fogs on my GT (same idea as the cdc kit they had on the mach 1) i just spliced them into the factory harness, so they all work off the factory fog switch.. its really really simple

The only harness I have is the one from the GT. There are no wires coming out of the Cobra Foglights. There is just a plastic female end that comes out of the back of the Cobra Foglights. Then there are the 2 male harness ends from my existing GT harness. One is on the passenger side and the other on the driver side. The male and female ends won't match up. I would just cut and splice but I am not seeing any loose wires coming from the Cobra foglights. So now what?

oh ok, sorry i misunderstood... anyways what youre going to have to do is saulder a wire to each of the connectors inside the cobra foglights(inside the female conector there should be little metal prongs), then splice those wires into the existing GT harness... now keep inmind after you do this, those elec connections inside the cobra light will be exposed to the elements, so you will have to cover it up with epoxy, or silicon or whatever, so they cant get wet.. but you shouldnt really have a problem hooking it up..

cool thanks. I also did a search and found out that there is a wire splice kit just for this setup. They are 20.12 a piece and you need to buy 2 of them. The part number is 1u2z14s411bca. I don't know why Ford wouldn't have said something about this? I guess I will check with them tomorrow on this and if they don't have it then I will splice them like you said. Thanks again.
