Default HELP! Which rear fog light wire do I splice into >>>>>>

There are two sets of wires for left rear fog light. One set (brown and gray) wire go to the bulb assembly and the other set goes to a plug near the bulb assembly. WHICH WIRE SET DO I TAP INTO TO POWER RIGHT FOG LIGHT ???? I tried to tap into each set but no power to the right. I used 12 guage wire instead of 14. Bought the wire splitter at Radio Shack. NEED HELP, FRUSTRATED!!!

Default Tap into the bulb assembly wire (Brown and gray)

Pull the bulb out of the left side and look at which wire feeds the center. Tap that wire and make sure it feeds the center of the new bulb harness. The other wire obviously feeds the side of the existing bulb assembly and you simply tap that wire and make sure you tap the side feed to the new bulb assembly. Then tuck or tape wires so they do not rattle. By the way, power is not available to the fog lights until you turn the key on or start the car. If you start the car, ensure you have lots of ventilation or do it outside...
