Default 09 GMC Sierra fog light installation help!

I have an 09 GMC Sierra WT that I want to install fog lights on. I have the fog light instrument panel, fog lights, and the pig tails. I do not know where the end of the pig tails connect to? Am I missing something?

Can you post pics? I did this on a nbs and it ran to the fuse box under the hood.

You have to lift the fuse box up and plug the power wire into the right pin underneath, basically into the relay that says "fog lights" It should say which connector pin to connect to if you got the GM fog light kit. The ground goes to a stud on the frame near the driver side suspension.

UUnfortunately my phone cannot take pictures . I realized I do not have the wiring that is needed to connect the fog lights to the fuse box. I have the pig tails that connect to the fog lights, but I am having difficulty finding the wiring that I need to connect the whole kit together. I am pretty sure the pig tails that are connected to the fog lights need to be connected to two ends right? I mean its only one wiring cable that splits with two ends to connect the fogs if I'm not mistaken.

I didn't buy the fog light kit, I bought everything separate. I was trying to save money, and now i realize i am missing the wiring that connects the pig tails of the fog lights to the fuse box and instrument panel.

Does the red tip (GM pin) go inside the fuse box?

Awesome thanks man! Btw where did you get the red pin? I went to a chevy dealer, and they couldn't specifically find the pin. Autozone maybe?
