    Hi, I have a 2011 taco, V6 Base,4 door. I found out that there are wires taped that lead to the fog light spots.

    I found some OEM fog lights, and just got the switch, and relay for the fuse box under the hood.

    My question is, what am I looking for to connect the switch? Is there a connection taped under the dash somewhere, or do I need to buy an '''add a circuit' and connect it to the fuse box under the dash and then to the switch.

    Thanks for the help in advance!

    If you have it, it should be a black colored connector with 4 slots. remove the switch blanks. It usually is "pinned" to the switch cover or wrapped in tape n foam.

    Unreal!!! Totally shocked to see the connector connected to the pretend button... I was expecting it to be zapped strapped to a bigger chunck of wires.

    Thanks for the help guys!!!
