    I put my front rally fog lights switch on the extra switch on the center consol area, and melted a hole just big enought to fit the aftermarket switch. I used a soddering gun to melt the hole, and niow it looks like it came with the sitch from the factory. 1 of the pictures is from the inside.

    I used Moncha guide when I installed the Hella Micro DE fog lights and then I added the PIAA series 2100 driving lights. I used 2 OEM fog light switches that Merlin supplied from St. Charles and installed then in the top of the dash for a factory look. Next project is to move the mirror heater switch to the bottom position where the blank switch is.

    Greetings, Earthling. We come in peace... Never mind "Paris to Dakar", the VehiCROSS looks ready for the Martian desert.

    You most likely posted only thumbnails instead of a thumbnail that opens to full size.

    For two of my sets of fog/driving lights I mounted the little "tap switch" that came with the lights to the front side of my shifter with some double stick tape...
    Now that I'm used to them being there, it's rare that I hit them by accident.
