Default Pic Request: DC2 TypeR Fog Light Switch

I have been searching and searching for pictures of an installed switch with no luck. I want to know what it looks like when it is illuminated + does it illuminate to indicate that it is on/off, or is there a separate indicator that the switch is on/off?

thanks a ton...

I am really just looking for a fog switch that has a housing that I can use with my JDM fogs that looks somewhat OEM. The USDM 92-93 fog switches are impossible to find and really expensive.

This button has a housing so that I could put it in my dash and it would look somewhat nice...

if you have another suggestion, I am open to other options (post pics)

Thanks for all the help guys...thought I would let you know how it turned out...

I got my switch in today and started measuring to see if it would fit where I wanted it to. It was going to be close, but I liked the location.

The switch:


with the connector and wire:


I made a rough template and started cutting and then dremeling, etc...


I did have to cut some plastic on the inside of the dash too because the switch is so deep. It is still intact, just some "weight savings":




Now a couple of pics installed:



what a mess!


now I just have to wire it up!
