TRDxD 02-13-2010, 11:18 PM I forgot his username but yeah there's been someone who's ran foglights which are almost exactly like that
I think his screenname was untouchable? and he's in...puerto rico? I think. he's on cardomain if you look, you'll see em

thats what i was looking for! thanks guys...as for an oem rocker switch..ill probly have to hit up my brother as he works at the dealership...the only open switch panels weve got is by the ebrake handle...unless im mistaken
TRDxD 02-14-2010, 08:02 PM There's ONE spot open on the dash near the gauge dimmer I think; but IMO it'd be nice to get a switch in near the e-brake since there's four blank lame ones lol
good luck! post your results with pics!
Wonder if anyone ever bought one of those switches from Oznium and tried drastically shaving it to get it to fit. Even if you have to glue it a bit to keep it in, wonder if it'd work...
xDTool 02-14-2010, 11:17 PM I tried a tc size switch, i wouldnt even waste my time with it if i was you, its a fair bit too big. Instead i went to autozone and got one of the small round switches with the red led at the top and popped one of the 4 tabs out, , and used a stepdrill in the center of the tab until the switched snapped right in, looks nice and OEM, IMO. I can go snap a pic if youd like.
TRDxD 02-14-2010, 11:56 PM what do you use your switch for?
xDTool 02-15-2010, 12:32 AM I went ahead and wired the dvd parking brake bypass on my head unit to a switch
akabigmike 02-15-2010, 02:36 AM ill be picking up some fogs once this damn 3ft snow melts
JJGeneral1 02-15-2010, 02:50 AM i want you to install fogs for me... i'll pay $$$
akabigmike 02-15-2010, 06:17 AM we can figure it out..and have a fog and pabst day lol
I'm up for that too! We can meet somewhere in the middle since we're in 3 of the 4 corners of the state. Say somewhere around State College? :D
Julian_xD 02-18-2010, 08:35 PM Hi! Well, the switch can be installed in the dashboard. It has to be at least 1.5" away from the mirror controls, and you have to run some cables through the firewall and into the little door found under the dash dimmer and mirrors. Perhaps you can route the cable down into the e-brake switches, which I have been thinking for a while, but you'd have to take out the console and the center assembly. Now, does anybody know where the headlight harness is so I can plug in my fogs? I have the installation manual of the optomize foglights, but I don't see the harness really well there, so I'd appreciate it if someone is able to post some pictures or tell me clearly where to plug the foglights in! The pictures of the manual are not so clear and there is more than one green cable! :bow::bow:

xDA51 06-01-2010, 08:04 PM Those hella 500's look badass!
JDMJim 06-02-2010, 07:04 PM or cut out the side vents and throw them in there.
Chinkylulu 06-02-2010, 11:34 PM does anyone know where i can find the common fog lights that go in the spots on the bottom? ....would it be at the dealership?
Can different fog lights fit there? lol
