    I am assuming this will be an OTRATTW switch, I am just saying that because the diagram looks the same as mine when I ordered from there. It will fit with some minor trimming with a box knife.

    Are they aftermarket fogs or will they be oem? If they're aftermarket then you will have a harness that comes with it. I was never able to get my factory harness to work.

    Also depends on the switch you order. Mine looked like this.

    Don't even try to use factory wiring. Just run the wires yourself. I just finished running a couple of OTRATTW switches last weekend.

    Run wires to ground for #7 and 8. Run #3 to a relay or lights. Run #2 using an "add a fuse" connector to the "accessory" fuse in the dash fuse block. Run #6 to one of the bottom wires on any lighted switch on the left of the steering wheel so the switch lights when you turn on the lights.

    Good luck.

    Great switch but you could have got it from the Real company for cheaper.
    The one you ordered is a SPST On/Off Switch and thats what I ordered and it looks like the back that I pictured above. [​IMG]

    These are OTRATTW.com switches. Theres a wide selection and great customer service. I called and ordered since I wasn't sure what I needed.

    Use the aftermarket wiring. Its simple to install and you know where everything is going to.
