    Have a question - on 07, the fog light switch never changes whether lights on or off. Is there a way to modify so you can tell if lights are on? Toyota corp. says that's the way it is but someone must have figured out solution.

    I got my first 4x4 in 1972...haven't been without one! I still like Chrome!
    My regular cab didn't come with fog lights, so I added OEM lights with an OEM switch. There is a sticky that gave detailed instructions with pictures. One thing I did was to wire the light on the switch from the power going to the fogs. That was when the fogs are on the switch light is on.
    I think it would be possible to rewire a factory switch in this manner.
    Read the "sticky", it shows which of the 4 wires on the switch is the switch light wire.
    Hope this helps a little.

    He means that you should click on the "Mods & Tutorials" above on the screen and click on the "cheap mod." They are called , "sticky" as they are often requested information from members... As in one of those "3M sticky" notes, get it ???

    It's hard to see but the first picture shows it on as the top green light is fully on the second is off...
