Found this custom gauge plate online, so bought it, installed it.

Fits in your ashtray space, and you can secure it down nicely.

Mine isnt secured down just yet, as I gotta wire in my back lights.

 

That is really cool I wish that would fit in mine!

 

mine too, 97 and up gets all the cool gadgets

 

Hey man, I'm wanting to do exactly what you're talking about. I have the factory piece with just the rear defrost switch, and bought the one with both switches off ebay. I want to wire some LED pods up to the fog light switch and use them as my fog lights. Did you wire lights up using the fog light switch, and how easy was it?

 

I also had had a factory fog light switch and no do not wire lights straight to switch unless you want a fire.

Go to advance auto or auto zone and buy a 4 prong relay. Relay with take the stress off the switch it self. All a relay does is 1)battery in 2)ground 3)switch 4)source aka lights. You can google and find a whole right up telling you everything you need and how to wire it. Just a word of advice.

 

I bought a light bar wiring kit off ebay to use but it comes with an egg shaped weird push button power switch. The kit has a relay and fuse built into the line. I basically wanted to know how if I could just cut that ugly switch off, put some blade terminals on the end of the wires, and slide them on the factory fog light switch. You think that would work?

 

Yea as long as you have a relay on it and a fuse you should be good to go using the factory switch.

 

Before I went and got real fog light switches:

 

Tell me more about that horn setup.

 

I wired my Hella 500's to a factory switch that I installed in the stock location. I used the entire Hella wiring harness and relay with the OEM switch. It works perfectly.

Here's the thread where I wired them to the switch:

The correct wiring order for the switch is in the last post.

 

Is that an aftermarket horn?
