Default Rigid Industries Dually LED Wiring?

I want to get a set of Rigid LEDs. I have a question on the wiring. Would it be possible to take a stock fog-light from the junkyard and cut the connector off and splice into Rigid then, I dont have to touch the factor fog-light switch/harness and no unnecessary switches?
Or any other lights would be applicative that I can plug and play, would like LED not halogen or HID. Main reason I like the Rigid is they can take abuse.

Yes. The Rigid LED's draw far less current than regular (OEM) fog lights, therefore the wiring doesn't need to be replaced with larger wire.

I stink at explaining. I want to know can I just basically make this a plug and play with the factory clip? If I take the clip off a junkyard XJ fog-light and splice it to the Rigid LEDs wiring, will that work? Here a pic of the clip I am talking about.
