Default ep3 cruise control switch as fog switch

Hello guys,

I have an ep3 and recently got the ebay fog light kit. The kit came with some cheap A*S piece of SH*T switch that was claimed to be "oem". ANyways, I was wondering if anyone has the pin out for the cruise control switch because Im planing on using that switch for the fog lights instead. I dont need the cruise control, i already took out the unit so thinking I would use the switch for something useful. It has 5 pins and Im not sure which wire goes where. Thank you in advance

am i right that you can operate the fog lights independantly from the headlights? that's what the switch sounds like. On standard fog light models, the car woudnt let you turn on your foggies without headlights and turns off while high beams. I did a independant fog light mod and high beams + foggies mod while i had the honda fit, looked really good driving foggies with no headies hehe

u could but most ebay kits use the stock car wiring. so it would be set how the factory has it, tho u can just change a couple things and it would fix ur lights to be independatly operateable.
