Thats a great how to thank you for that but im looking for a place to get everything i need and then bring it to a place to be installed, I called a couple of dealerships and they said they dont sell any fog light sets for the LS. so i asked if the LT fogs are the same and they said no and if they were it would cost me $700 for the kit and another place said $800 im all set with that.

The dealerships probably wont do that for you, warranty issues and they pretty much shy away from "modifications" like that. Some of the local car audio shops and some window tinting places that sell lighting will do it for you.
It is actually a pretty easy mod to do. I bought a set of factory fogs from the local scrap yard for 45 bucks apiece with bulbs connector and about a foot of the pigtails.
They basically snap into place of the "vents" so are easy to install. I hooked them up with a relay from AutoZone ($6), to a 12 volt power and used the low beam output to switch the relay. Oh , I put a fuse in the 12 volt power line.

This is how I initially installed fogs on mine. Later on I picked up a set of stock lights on EBay and replaced them. Kept this wiring. I did have to replace the switch a while back, but other than that, they are still working great. Even with HIDs in them.

Jay, there is no need to start any more posts on fog light installation for your car. If you continue this one you will still get the answers you are looking for. If you are unsure what to buy start scanning the local yellow pages for window tint shops, or a speed shop, or even stereo installation place. Tell them what you are trying to get done and let them handle the whole job, buying the lights to be installed also.

Or you could call around to scrap yards, or even ebay looking for factory units. Or, head out to your local auto zone or similar store looking for a fog light assembly that will fit inside the 5 1/2 opening. If you still want someone to install these for you, you will still need one of the above mentioned places.
