Default 2008 Mustang V6 to Roush conversion
Hi, I got my 2008 Mustang about a month ago, and I am converting it to a Roush (Well, the body anyway)

I figure it is the best way to go because I live in a city, and there is no reason to have the Roush guts, unless I want to spend more in gas money.

Everything fits fine, I got the GT grille as well, so that is all good.

My only concern is making the fog lamps functional.

My Roush kit came with a wiring harness for the Roush fog lamps.

I am just concerned that the V-6 mustang won't have the required circuits or fuses for the GT fog lamps.

If I get the GT wiring harness, and the GT switch here..
2005-2009 Mustang GT Headlight/Fog Light Switch at Blue Oval Industries for your Ford Mustang @ Blue Oval Industries
would there be any other problems I would run into? IE, splicing wires, and the fog lights not working as they should (be spliced in to the head lights and not be able to work independently)

Your largest problem may be with Blue Oval, do a search on them.

They have bad reputation and their cust service sucks. Stay away from blueoval & rpmoutlet.
Shop elsewhere, try the sponsors because after you buy your stuff, at night you will sleep not worrying if you will ever get your item incomplete or get it at all.

I have a street scene wiring harness, didn't need it, may have the directions somewhere. It has the switch and the relays. It was $80 plus shipping (without the grill). Got anything you want to trade ? Warning, it looks like a pretty big job, you may want to check into having someone do it for you.
