    Bart,

    I would think that if you are going to run lights you would need to get the fog light switch. I'm not that electrically savy, but just looking at the back of all of the switches they are all very different. The plugs are all different shapes and sizes, and they have different numbers of wires running out of the back of them. I guess most switches are just on/off affairs so I suppose that you could rig a cruise control switch to work the lights.

    Like I said before, though, the wording (in this case "Cruise Control") looks like it is silk screened onto the face of the switch and it doesn't look like you could sand it out and put something else in it's place. I have my VX and my camera with me at work today, so I can snap a couple of picture of the face of the switch if you would like, but you would have to wait until this weekend before I can pull the dash to get to the back of the switch (I may be able to jimmy it out from the front if you really need to see the back of the switch today).

    Good luck with the install.
