Thanks again! The 880 connectors are easy to find online or eBay.

Is it possible to wire them directly into the low-beam headlight circuit? The stock relay and fuse might need to be upgraded, but what about the wiring? I am installing 35W HIDs for the low-beams (which actually draw more power when starting) and each fog light bulb is about 27W I read. That's right around 10A continuous.

On 99-02, you have to get the truck flashed to activate them. That, or do your own wiring. I would recommend putting them on their own relay and fuse if you go this route.

Do you have a link to where I can get the kit?
