Wiring up Hella Fogs to a light on/off switch on a 87 TA

I have some Hella Fogs that I have installed in my car and would like to know if I can use this switch with a relay. The switch has 6 blades on it so how do I determine which blades to use. I want to use this switch since it matches my interior switches whereas the 3 prong switch that came with the Hella Fogs doesnt match at all. I may have a relay that came with the Hella Fogs, I am not sure. The Hella fogs have 3 wires coming from it.

Thanks

The way to determine which terminals to use: connect one lead of an ohmmeter to one of the 6 fingers on the switch, and use the other lead to probe the other fingers as you operate the switch.

When you have 0Ω you have found the fingers you need.

If you have no luck with the first test, move the lead you first connected to one of the fingers and move it down one, then repeat the test.
