(see end of Page 1 for update)

ok I'm tired of looking for info about it. But, I did find one person confirming toyota did install it on the left air vent area of the driver side. Just to ask again, Is the OEM fog light switch/button location on the left air vent area of the driver side left air vent? My car alarm light is located in that indented circle where I think the button/switch is at... I think.... if exists. Is it a button? Was it offered on US celicas? Man I dont think I am making sense... sleepy time.

ohhh dang it, if someone has I a pic that will just shut me up.

Hi everyone. Yes, I finally got around to installing my OEM fog light switch (or button should
I say) that I bought from the UK. As everyone knows they usually use this particular button for
their rear fog light. Yes, over ther they require cars to have rear fog light just because it
foggy 90% of the time over there.

Anywho, It was A LOT easier install than I thought it would be. The wiring was a bit tricky, just because
the wire colors did not follow any U.S. coloring logic... so I just connected different wires until
the button worked. I had the drilling hole part planned/down but I was worried on how I was going
to mount it behind the vent section. The RHS drive setion that it came with had the built-in platic
tab/brackets... I thiught surely Toyota would not have those plastc brackets on my LHS drive vent...
WELL IT DID!!!!!!!!! I was sooooo happy/relieved/exicted when I saw that. Like I always have said,
Toyota thinks of everything. Pretty much "plug and play" after the hole was cut.

I was very pleased with the results. It gives the interior something extra and a cleaner stock look that
I always strive for. One thing I did not like was that the white vent "flow on/off" symbols are alittle worn
I will repaint those next. I may go all out and reproduce a stensel to repaint...

See before and after pics below... Enjoy.

PS: I also included pics of my long-since installed 1999 OEM leather seats. PEACE.
