i have a set of kc off-road fog lights that i have run to the kc switch but i would rather the look of the factory switch. would the factory switch have enough amps to run the fog lights or would i burn fuses all the time?

The factory switch probably isn't capable of handling more amps than the KC switch. Are you running your lights through a relay?

i used the factory wiring kit that comes with the KC lights.

i would have to look at the actual relay, but yea, that's what my setup looks like.

so your saying, if that is the case, then i should be able to get a factory oem switch to run to those lights?
