Fog lights?
 
As you all know, the v6 models don't come with fog lights. I wanted to know how hard it would be to wire, or get someone to wire up the fog lights to its own, on or off switch. I have thought about having it wired into my parking/headlight switch, but have since decided against it.

Has anyone here done this? I figure I will try to implicate an on/off switch where it would be located on the GT models, near the bottom of the center display.

I also want to know if I could somehow get the center display of a GT to make the look more professional. I have tried google and all that comes up are the fog light housings. I want a kit, if there is one.

www.vmptuning.com sells v6 fog light kits with Ford OEM lights,wiring, and the button. Check it out. I don't know what year car you have or I would link it for you. Its under the appearance section.

Where does it go? Where the push button goes on a GT model?

Does it come with a cut out, because I know where it should go on my car, but there is nothing there down there besides a power outlet, and the plug.

It would look like this, correct?

Doesn't the V6 model have the hole there just has a plain cap in it instead of the button? that's how all the base GT models without traction control and other v6 cars I have seen are.

yeah thats how mine was it came with the rear defroster button and two empty caps and all i had to do was remove one of those empty caps and place the fog light button in. Ill try and get a pic up here later today.

This is where I have my rear defroster button:

Maybe it changes throughout the years? I have a '99. I know what it should look like, but I don't have any of the cut outs, or plastic inserts that should be there.

Here is what my thing looks like. <-- LOL

i might idk i always thought the fog light switch on those years was a button in one of the coin holder spaces behind the cup holder.

Must See 12-23-2008 12:17 PM

not quite sure how the 99 model works with the fog lights.

No, I think you're talking about the convertible switch. But then again, I saw a this and you could be right.

Note the two buttons my the rear of the cup holders.

I wonder how much it would cost for me to get the GT console installed...

Then I would already have a space for the button, plus two other non functional buttons.

The 99-00 are different then the 01-04 from what I under stand when it comes to fog light, and defrost button placement.

stangkid1993 10-07-2009 04:50 PM

For 99's they go in the coin holder, thats where they are on GT's
