Foglights - need help

I just installed the foglights I got from E-bay and need the light switch that goes along with the foglights. I looked on E-bay and could not find any and the Dealer wants $120, would like to find it a bit cheaper. Any ideas?

If you are talking about the factory headlight switch with the Fogs built in.....salvage yard?

If you mean just a manual switch.....Radio Shack.

I was looking for a better price on the factory switch since all the wiring is already installed. I tried the salvage yards around here and can't seem to find the switch.

The switch from a fog-light equipped Expedition of that era should work. Might broaden the possibilities.

I bought the Headlight/Foglight module from the Dealer and the lights still don't come on. Does anyone know if I need to add any wires or relays to finish this installation?

Thanks

Check the power block under the hood. If it didn't come with the option, then the main circuit fuse is probably not installed. There are some replays that look like large blade fuses too. Take a look at a schematic for a vehicle that has the lights already. Then look at your set up and make sure you aren't missing anything.

Also, don't forget the regular fuse block onder the dash.
