@plumbob thanks so much the schematics and pictures. Now I can stalk the junk yard until I find a monte with wire harness. Also thank you @kingword and @The_Manic for the help too and I am interested in that driver info center.

For fog lights you could just make your own harness for them. I know I did that on my lumina to add fog lights. It was pretty simple. All you need to do is run a power wire from inside the car to a switch. Then run that wire to a relay under the hood and run that off of your battery. Then just run the wires to a set of fog lights.

@KingWord - I sent you a PM about your question (so not to totally de-rail this thread topic lol).

@chevykid404 - I'd say shoot me a PM so not to clutter this thread by shifting off topic to the Driver Info Center (but you can't use the PM feature until you are a full member, which is 5 days and 10 posts). My email address is in my for sale listing. Here's the link:

Shoot me an email and we can discuss the driver info center. I have a full kit for a sun roof car. If that's not what you need and you need the non-sunroof version, I can arrange that too. It's an easy "mod" to do (I've done it twice now, once in my Monte and then the Wife's Impala, same setup).

Sorry to de-rail this thread's topic, now back to your regularly scheduled programming

@crazyzach722 could that power wire connect to the fog light switch.

It's a small black rectangular cube (kina looks like a fuse) that plugs into the underhood top accessory wiring block which is behind the battery on the fender well. It should be labled on the top of the block cover. It's surrounded by dotted lines, marked 10A, 3rd position over from the right, 2nd row up.

Thanks @plumbob I will check that out. I went to the junk yard and pulled that wire harness. The problem I ran into was the dimmer switch with the fog button. I noticed that there was a harness that connected from the switch to the fuse box connector. Do I need that harness too?

The dimmer switch is part of the headlamp switch. The fog switch is just on-off. The fog wiring is bundled with the head lamp harness so yah, unless you want to run a separate, custom wiring harness just for the fogs you're gonna need that whole headlamp/fog harness.
