1966 foglight wiring question

Ok guys. I need help. I am looking at trading my extra set of wheel covers to aqua66gt for his foglamp wiring. But I have a question. My cars original underdash harness was really cut up so I replaced it. Well, as it turns out my reprduction harness HAD the ring on a wire that connected the ignition switch to the foglamp breaker, but I accidentally shorted it out by thinking it was a ground and connecting it to the dash. (I was 16 and didn't have a wiring manual then, plus the originals weren't built into the harness) Thankfully, that wire getting fried didn't damage my harness so I cut it open (carefully), cut out the damaged feed, and then re-taped my harness. So, now the question. Can someone show me how that feed goes from the ignition switch to the breaker? I read Veronica's "The Care and Feeding of Ponies" blog entry about how to wire foglamps and she says that we are supposed to supply it. Thanks guys.

BTW, I just want to take the chance to say thank you guys for not correcting me. Being british in school is difficult because I get corrected all the time. I say the bonnet (your hood), the boot (your trunk), hood (your convertible top), and I say fog LAMPS instead of fog LIGHTS. I also say things like aluminium (NOTE SPELLING) and pronounced alu-mini-um. So again thanks.

Help me Veronica

Veronica,
I have read your post and blog. I have found the two prong connector (rear turn signals) that is plugged into something that comes out of the steering column. Also, I looked for other wires coming from the same part of the harness as detailed in the pictures on your blog. My problem is that I only find a two prong connector (same yellow and black wires) but can not find a three prong connector. Is it possible my car only has a two prong connector here ilo three prong connector. PLEASE HELP!!!

By the way I have a 1966 Convertible that was built in September 1965 (don't know if that matters -- don't know if they have various designs based on MY/production date).
Thanks.

So can I use the wiring harness that came with my 66 fog light conversion kit (3 prong) or do I need to purchase a 65 fog lamp wiring harness? :scratchchin
