Hello everyone! Has anyone installed true front fog lights on their GLE 350?
If anyone has, and would be willing to share any details, that would be very much appreciated.
I tried this kind of work myself when I was in my teens, and was never happy with my “not professional” results!
(LOL)
Thank you in advance!

See at the bottom front. I bought it from eBay and used a remote control switch to turn it on when needed.

Thank you Sub!

Welcome!
You can buy a wireless switch from amazon and universal fog light from ebay. I took 12 V power from the fuse box and connected the wireless switch there. No need to thread the wire through the firewall. Simple setup

Sub,
I'm having a problem finding a switch like that… can you point me in the right direction?

No worries. I took the power source from the engine compartment fuse box and added a fuse between the power source and the wireless switch. Regarding wiring, you need to run the wire from the fog light to the wireless switch there is a lot of space you can find to thread the wire, and 2nd set of wiring you need to connect the power source to the wireless switch. That's it, I used velcro to stick my remote switch close to the headlight switch knob ( Left side of the steering ). You can use a key chain but I prefer to be close to the light switches.

In my previous ML I tapped the relay/ circuit for the rear fog light so it was all factory looking. The front fogs came on with th rear fogs

I can't even remember if it was this forum or not, but is there an aftermarket source to get the fuse holders that plug into the fuse panel? I recall, somewhere, that it provided a fuse while "properly" tapping a power source. I'd like to add fog or driving lights myself.

In my case, this is the wiring diagram If you have a multimeter you can check which one is alive and take power from there. I want to keep it separate so took the direct feed and added a fuse. You can buy such fuse from eBay see link below
