Like JonHsiung, I like to use blanks and put my own switches in. I found some really cool aluminum colored toggles with red L.E.D.'s in the end.

Sorry, I havent Been around In awhile, mostly hanging out in the basement, I meant I found female spade terminals the same size as the tabs on the back of the switch at pepboys. The socket that fits into the back of the switch is like $50 at the dealership, I went to every radioshack, electronics shop and computer shop around to find a socket to fit in the switch, I gave up and went to try and find female spade terminals to fint on the tabs on the back of the switch. The ones that fit were for a ford wiring harness, and were in the electrical section of pep boys. Just take the switch with you and check to see which ones fit the closest.
the top wire (black) is the ground
the second wire (red) is the power wire (in) that comes from the battery/fusebox/whatever source of power youre using
the third wire (green) is the accessory (out) wire. This goes from the switch to the positive terminal on whatever it is you are powering.
**sorry bout the size of the pic

I looked in the electrical parts section at pep boys and couldnt find anything that fit. I dont suppose you know the part number or the exact description of it so i can go back to pep boys and be specific? last time i went, they were pretty clueless of what to look for. also, did your socket have 3 or 5 holes?
also, the pic u put up doesnt work...
thanks dood.

I had these really tiny male ends too, I tried sottering the wire, no go, tried wraping the wire, no go.
Finally I took some small connectors that have a hole in the middle to put a screw through, bent them into a u, hooked um up and taped it good with electrical tape.

ok, the pic should work now. I'm not actually using a socket that goes in there, so I took 3 terminals, soldered the wires to each terminal, wrapped each terminal singlely in electrical tape, then taped the 3 together to make a sorta homemade socket.
