got a body kit that came with fogs for my 91. a stock switch would be nice if its not to much of a hassle. my harness prob doesnt have the wire so id just have to run the extra wire from the switch to a relay to the lights. if youve got a pic that would be gravy! thanks

You mean the concentric one on the light stalk?

As Brian said, it's built into the headlight "stalk" and requires that the lights be (at least) aprtioally turned on to activate. I wonder if you could use an additional defroster or cruise control switch in place of the interior temp sensor location. Or is there a blank on the dash???

Let me look when I'm in the car today.

Do you still have an ash tray? If so, do you use it, might be another good location as the fog lights aren't something you'll turn off and on alot.

I'll post up later after I look around a bit.

Actually, if you are going into the dash, I would put it where the microphone is on the left side of the steering column and leave the temperature sensor where it is happy working.

Right... they all came pre-wired with the microphone for the factory kit.

Yes, this makes better sense and would seem more "logical" to have the lights switch on the LH side of the sterring wheel.

I didn't look when I was in the car earlier, cause I was in a big hurry. I hate being late for something . But I still let it warm up, while I helped my son get his basketball shoes laced up.
