Default need some running lights help

I replaced my bumper today and cut the skirt off to look like I have more clearance. I removed my fog lamps and now I want to mount some on the top of the bumper. Anyone have any luck with taping into the existing plugs behind the bumper so I can switch already installed. Just to be clear I am talking about using the stock wiring from the old fog lamps to run some aftermarket lights. Can this be done? It is a 2001 XJ. thanks
