Anyone know where to get one for cheap? Dealer wants $225

Re: North American Lightswitch w/ Fog

i got a euroswitch last summer off ebay for under 40$

or concept 1 here in town has them for 80 or 90$

Re: North American Lightswitch w/ Fog

^^^yup. Concept 1 even has "irregulars" that, if you don't plan on taking out your switch again, are perfectly fine and only about $40 . That's what I have in my car right now, and it actually wasn't that hard to take out anyway....just had to remove the fuse panel cover

Re: North American Lightswitch w/ Fog

I prefer NA style. Euroswitch has settings that I'll never use (rear fog). Maybe I'm a little picky...

Re: North American Lightswitch w/ Fog

Ive got an NA with the fog switch in my ride... I think it cost me $150 from the dealer a few years ago... I dunno why they jacked the price.

Re: North American Lightswitch w/ Fog

I'll see if I still have my NA style switch at home. If I do, you can definately take it off my hands .....and I won't charge you $225 either

That'd be sweet. I'll cross my fingers...

Could always use that other setting for something else...

I'm thinking of wiring up my garage door opener

Re: North American Lightswitch w/ Fog

is it fairly simple to wire up the switch to aftermarket fogs?

Yes, the hardest part is putting a wire through the firewall, but other than that it's as simple as can be. Here are some links to get you started:

PM me if you run into any snags with the install.

thanks for the offer!!!

What I am wondering about is the actual connection to the switch. Is it just like a normal toggle switch (one wire in and one wire out) or is it different?

Re: North American Lightswitch w/ Fog

anybody else have a NA switch with fog? I've been looking around for one for ages!

Re: North American Lightswitch w/ Fog

why not just get a euro switch? they are like 40US from a guy on vortex who mass sells them.. (thats how i got my old one.. he may not be around anymore tho)
