    Fog Switch, where did it come from?

    http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Honda...22438083QQrdZ1

    I have that exact same switch that I took from my ex-parts car SE-i sedan.

    I guess it used to have aftermarket fogs fitted to it but the switch surrounds matches the "expansion" port perfectly. Now, I see alot of these switches. Were they available at the dealer?

    I just want to pinpoint their origin.

    I have one too. I pulled it out of a honda a couple of years ago at a junk yard in Florida, I never put it in because it came from a blue interior.

    I can't remember what type of honda it was.

    I have the "cruise control" one too and it looks damn good. I just wanted to know if that ebay switch was realyl a dealer option in America and it seems to be.

    I dunno, it looks like the switch is mounted on the stock blank plate. I'd rather have the OEM switch.
