Welcome! Nice truck.

The plugs in the NSBU come that way factory... Or at least every one I've had apart was.

Could you explain the factoru fog light kit, is that an add on if you don't have the fog lights to begin with or does it change something. I can't tell is the lower valance different with the kit?

Nice looking truck. Would love to upgrade the lights on mine to what you did. Would make a huge improvement over factory.

The local Autozone sells the tailgate handle bezel if you haven't gotten one yet. I ordered one online before I figured that out. Mine shattered one day when I was using it.

gm offers a kit, factory harness, switch, lights etc.. everything you need to install fog lights onto these trucks if it didnt come factory. and no valence is not on right now. stock one didnt have holes for fogs so i bought an aftermarket one and it did not fit well so in frustration i ripped it off..

its like this but OBVI it would be specific to your year of truck.
