Default Keeping with the Fog Light Thread trend

I had a nice little radio shack push button switch for my fog lights that I painted to be an exact match to my interior. However, it met an untimely end (I guess thats what you get for $2 ). I don't want to spend the hours again mixing the paint and have it break in a few months like this one. Has anyone ever figured out how to wire after market fog lights (with the standard 2 wire set up) into an OEM fog light switch? I had heard people talking about it a while ago...Can anyone tell me how? I know the OEM switch has a bunch of pins on the back, but there has to be a way to hook my wires in to it. Please help...I will be eternally indebted to you...thanks in advance.

Keeping with my foglight thread answer...PM "White95CivicSi" because he seems to be some kind of OEM/OEM-style foglight expert! *shrug*

i dunno about an aftermarket harness going to a factory switch. the factory wiring harness is more complicated than the simple 3-wire harness that come with most aftermarket foglights.

my friend has PIAA 1000's wired to a factory switch, but it's through the factory wiring. all he did was cut the ends of the factory harness that goes into the factory foglights, and just wired it to the PIAA 1000's.
