is this something i can do?

im adding factory fog lights to my 06 silverado 3500..
instructions says:
"the TBC must be programmed to recognize the installed fog lamps"

then goes on to say something about a SPS to program the lights...

or is something for the dealer$hip to do?

You could do it.....If you happen to have a Tech II handy. The features need to be enabled in the relative computers. Your dealer is an option, but any shop/person that has a Tech II can do it.

I installed a set on my 04 2500HD. Plug and play... :). I purchased a set of stock lights from dealer- the kit included the lights, switch, and the mounting unit which attatches to the bumper (brain fade on the name of it...). Had to fit a fuse into the fuse box under hood and wire it. No programming necessary.

Good deal. Sometimes it's good to be wrong. I think maybe the snags I hit are the exception, and not the rule. Or, it could be another one of those "California only" things. This state is just too unique, in too many ways.

i get my lower air deflector on thursday, i dont think i can hurt anything if i push the button to see if the lights come on......right?

ill come back here to let everyone know how it went..

woothoo....everything works, and no trip to the stealer$hip..

what's interesting, when i picked up my lower air deflector, i asked a mechanic i trust about reprograming the system to get the fog lamps to fire off, he said "yep, i do it all the time"...

The only thing I don't like is that I can't figure out how to have the fog lights turn on automatically when the headlights come on. I have to manually push the light switch......
