Fog light addon

I took off my switch panel and saw that my car was wired with the harness for a foglight switch. Does anyone know what else I need to install, aside from the foglights themselves to make the factory wiring for the foglights fully oprational, even for a pair of aftermarket foglights?
Thanks.

Get the fog light switch and put the relay in. Then find the harness up where the foglights are and hook it up.

On my '85 TA its near the fuel pump relay by the driverside firewall. It may be where your headlight control module is. Though it may have been moved around

OOPS. Just read that teh relay is located under the dash somewhere. Apparently it got moved there during the years. Juse look for loose conectors tied off somewhere.

is the underdash location applicable for the '91 cars? I did a board search and everything else I read pointed to the firewall and the inside of the front left fender. The only specific year mentioned was '92. I haven't looked yet either though. I need daylight for that. At least I know where to start.
Thanks for your help

It should be on the driver side mounted all by itself near the fender area. It is typically smaller than most of the other relays.
