From what I've read here, some models come pre-wired, and others (like my '06TJ X) do not. I just bought a set of PIAA 520's that I'm itching to install. They come with a wiring harness. I'd like to find some kind of "stock" switch too, but there doesn't seem to be one. The stock foglamp switch for the TJ is a modified version of the turn signal stalk apparently, and I didn't want to mess with that.

I bought 3 of these for my TJ and they fit absolutely perfect in the stock holes. I dont need 3 now but I did use 1 to hook up my aftermarket fogs.

i'm not sure if you can find them cheaper or whatever but I really didnt feel like looking.

If you want to wire it up yourself, here's the proper way to do it. You can get the factory switch and use it if you do not have the wiring harness in the dash still too.
