This link may help you in wiring the factory fog light switch to your existing aftermarket fog lights without the use of a factory harness.

Ah gotca, for something like that you can probably just grab a multimeter on the oem switch. See which pins are closed when pressed (which would complete the circuit and turn it on) I think the OEM one has like 4/5 pins though as it interacts with the headlights and what not. Yours would just be a simple on/off. Let me see if I can snag a diagram for the oem fog switch

Re: Fog Light Switch Question (94 Accord)
You should be good, worst case is get a multimeter and see which pins are open when the switch is depressed and closed when the switch is pressed.
