I just acquired some fog lights and have the switch as well. My 74 has the wires in the front bumper to hook up the lights, but the PO taped them up, easy enough. As for the switch, shoud the wires for the switch be behind the dash as well? I have to drill a hole to install the switch, but I was wondering if the wiring harnesses have all the necessary wires for all the options? I also acquired a MPS that is not the same part number as mine. I installed it and drove it around for awhile but it made the engine hitch a little. Can these be adjusted? Mine is working just fine, I just wanted a spare to keep or get rid of if anyone needs it.

Thanks,
Rod

...I have to drill a hole to install the switch...

are you -sure- ?

okay - i've never fiddled with a '74, but all the early cars i've seen have come with a hole already in the dash, under the basketweave vinyl. might even be under a cover plate so you'll have to feel for it from behind. could be on either side, but since (IIRC, could be wrong...) by '74 they'd moved the windscreen wiper button off the dash onto the column, and i bet the later dashes still have that hole. i don't know - but my point is - check for existing holes before conculding you need to drill a new one. as for wires from the dash to the relay - if there even is a relay installed - i donno... someone with a newer car will have to help you on that...
