I installed a new bumper that has fog lights but the connectors don't match the factory ones. I don't have the desire to be lying on my driveway under the truck in the Northeast winter weather dealing with cutting and splicing. Can someone help figure out what connector types these are so I can try and find an plug-and-play adapter harness? Thanks guys

Best bet is to get in touch with the bumper manufacturer to see if they have an adapter. Do those fog lights have an install harness? If so, find the male plug for the OEM plug and make your own harness.

Think you have the labels for the pictures mixed up between the truck side oem connectors and the new dog light connector. You need these to plug into the factory wiring harness connectors.


The new dog light connectors are 2-pin Deutsch style connectors. So you can either cut them off and splice in the connectors above or create your own adapter harness and crimp these on to the other end of the pigtsilnon above connectors.


You will need the crimp tool for those pins.

 
Also, you desperately need to clean the corrosion off those OEM connectors. Then use some dialectric grease when you plug in new connectors. It's supposed to be weather proof style connectors but there was obviously some water intrusion causing the green corrosion
