OEM fog light install

[durbindt]

This is my first time posting here so not sure where to ask this question but I have a 2025 Telluride EX X-PRO. I would like to know if it is pre wired for fog lights, being I live in a valley area along a river it is quite foggy along with a lot of wildlife that like to run at night, any help would be greatly appreciated.

I’m in the same boat, trying to get some feedback before I move forward with adding OEM style fogs

I have a 2021 Telluride EX Model and mine did not come pre wired. I did add some though. Bought Used OEM fog lights, front plastic cover with the openings for them and a switch that I used to wired them from the battery. Not an OEM Switch but it works. The switch I used is illuminated as well. Not sure if for later years or models they are pre-wired. Just know that in order to install the fog lights you do have to remove the bumper to make it easier.

I have found a few aftermarket kits and may just end up going that route and running a separate switch. Still waiting on Kia to confirm they can access the body control module to activate the fog lights using the KDS diagnostic software they use for reprogramming/flashing ECM

Good info let me know if they are able to reflash the BCM (Body control) for fog lights activation i have the after market kit waiting on better weather in the N.E. to cold to mess with plastic for risk of cracking, also trying to see if the fog lights wire colors even exist on 2025 ex x-pro if I can tap into them and then get the O.E.M Switch. I'm a mechanic by trade so none of that will be a challenge for me . I just do not have access the KDS software. I am hope others will find this information useful.

I’m in the same boat as well- thought about going aftermarket which I will if I can’t get the answer on BCM. I have heard unconfirmed reports the connectors are there for fogs- I searched out the harnesses for ex x pro v sx x pro and the part numbers are the same. I’m in PA so I hear you about the weather, want to drop the plastic to see if the connectors are tapped up by bumper reinforcement.

I’m going to be following up with the dealers today to see if I can get an answer on the BCM activation. Will keep the post updated on what I hear. According to what I researched on KDS software, in theory they should be able to do it, it’s just a matter of a dealer being a dealer at that point and being pricks haha
