I installed a new relay into my Fog Lights.  That did seem to fix the issue of the lights not always coming on or staying on.  After some investigation and looking around at the components.....I managed to tear apart my Fog light Switch.  Turns out the locking component in the switch is broken and not locking the switch into place.  Does anyone have a spare switch the might be willing to part with?

Right now my solution is to rig the switch into an always on state by removing a spring in it.  I would just like to have a working switch again if possible.

They sold it with the fog lights, but since they are no longer available, I don't think you would find the same one.

But a switch is a switch, just replace it with another. Most likely it would have to be a bigger one to fit the hole, but it can now almost be any style of switch.

Electrical Connection has a replacement fog light switch, expensive.
