Stupid Fog Lights

Ok, Is there any other method of turning on and off your fog lights than the pannel that rests at your arms? I have an 89 GXL and my lights either are blown or I can't figure out how to turn them on. This is a dumb question I know but is there any other switch besides the one that sits next to the alarm light and automatic mirror switch? Thanks for the help.

The foglights only come on if that switch and your park lights or headlights are on.

Hey I recently had my set of Foglights Blown. Its to expensive to purchase the old H1 light bulbs so i got my friend to re wire my foglight to fit in H3 bulbs.
I recommend you try this cause the old style of H1 bulbs are so rare to come by and its basically a supply and demand situation for us consumers. Oh yeah don't use anything above 50 watz or you are gonna fry your wires.

Try checking your fuse to see if it is blown.

Ok, how hard to rewire to H3? And if I can't who meaning Machine shop? could do it. And how expensive are we talking when it comes to replacing the H1?
