Fog Light Installation Questions

I plan on purchasing these oem-like foglights off ebay. They come with fog kit, switch, relay cables, and h11 bulbs. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/07-08-TOYOTA-CAMRY-JDM-CLEAR-FOG-LIGHTS-LIGHT-LAMP-KIT_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ33709QQihZ020QQitem Z300221940822QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWDVW

I have searched through most of the fog light threads but I still have some questions I was wondering if you guys can help me on.

1) For the switch that is included, do I need to cut the plastic piece under my coin drawer off my dash or does that piece pop off?

Basiclly, I do not want to install through the turning wheel signal . I either want to connect to low beams or install through the included switch. Does anyone have any clear tutorials on doing so? I wasn't able to find any exact step by step tutorial.

I know how to remove the bumper and install the fog lights on correctly but I read about some people using the included factory harness and some people tappin into the tail light fuses and ect. Also if I want to use the switch, how do I connect the wire to the dash? I have never done these kind of mods before.

is it possible to find a switch like this which is more subtle and fits exactly into the precut slot?

its not going to fit exactly into the precut slot. just get that switch, and drill the appropriately sized hole in the cover plate.

you can purchase that switch from autozone. That is where i bought mines, but mines came with a blue led.

or you can wire it to the stalk and have no switch for a factory look.
