Ok, heres the deal..
I have spent like 3 hours today, trying to get my foglights to work, i have checked all fuses, and replaced both bulbs and yet to work. I was wondering if it could be the switch? When i press the switch, does the switch button suppose to go in, or does it suppose to remain the same length? Cause when i press it , it doesnt seem like its doing anything. Pleaseeeeeee help!

You most likely have a bad switch. Its not uncommon for the switch to break. The switch should click in for the on position, out for the off. Just drop by the junkyard or email this person for a switch(he will charge you) ;) .... philm97@home.com

To check your switch, just have someone push and hold in the button (or tape it) and check if the lights turn on.
The problem is the switch clip breaks inside and doesn't stay in the "on" position.

I have done that, and it still doesnt work.. Im thinking about hooking up my foglights to my headlights, so when i turn them on both will come on. Do you recommend this or not> i know it wears the headlights down bad, but shoud i just try it to see if it works?

My switch is broken, it just pops back out. Is there a place to get a new switch besides the junkyard?

I've never worked with the dash before. Anyone know the easiest way to get at that switch (maybe I can repair it)

getting the dash aprt to get to the switches is easy... just undo the 4 screws from dash over the steering wheel. Then take out the plastic molding between that and the one to the right and undo those 2 screws. Then undo the connectors youll screwes on the back holding the switches in. Is real easy just start poking around.
