Install Fog Light switch (Custom)

For 01 corolla LE

I tried to find one but I am looking for adding a switch for fog lights. Here are the pictures of Headlight switch.





Let me know which wires need to be connected to switch to turn on the fog lights. I have added relay and foglights, wiring was already there.

EDIT: I have placed a custom switch as shown in the image above. Thanks all.

Since DRL are on 2001 model. Fog lights get turned on in following cases

Car is not in gear: Turn on headlight and fog light
Car is in gear: Turn on Fog light or Turn on high beam.

i know it sounds tedious, but theres of the millions of foglamp threads there is one where a person describes what two wires to pull out with needle nose pliers for like a $5 switch. just search this forum for it.

i have an 01 and was going to do that too, but didnt bookmark the thread. if i find it ill let you know but im not in any hurry to install foglamps.

Disconnect the harness under/inside the steering column that controls the indicators, headlights, turn signals, etc. and wire the white w/ black stripe and red w/ blue stripe wires to your $5 toggle switch and mount it wherever you'd like. Plug the relay in where the blank spot is on the left side of the car up under the steering column area (not the fuse box, you have to get down and crawl up in there and it's sorta high up on the left side of the car. Plug in your new foglights to the OEM wiring harnesses, and your done!
