Default Fog light wiring question

Had a great day at the junk yard!! Got my Hannibal rack, extra fog light dash switch & the pigtails for the LR Safari 5000 lights I was looking for. My question is I need the wires that go from point "a" to point "b". Since I cant seem to find a wiring diagram for this purpose, can anyone tell me if this kit will this work? Oh, a diagram from the factory switch would be nice as there are (4) wires going into it. Thanks!

I just wired the pigtails. I'll have to see what the pin out is. I basically ran one heavy wire from the fuse box to under the steering column. Split to 3 lighter gauge wires and mounted three relays. All ghe lighting is LED with a low draw. Adjust wire ga accordingly. As for the switches I ran the back light power wire from 3 into one and tapped into the existing fog light harness. Pretty sure pin 4 is back light. Not sure the rest off the top of my head.

1 is power, 2 is back light, 3 is blank, 4 is output to relay, 5 is ground. Might want to double check 1 and 4

I noticed the switch pod has (3) different pin locations molded into it (i.e., fog light, cruise control & mystery plug with a blank) making it impossible to get (3) fog light switches into it like you have. Did you just shave them off the plugs?
