Euro Headlight Switch - Install

So the euro switch came in Friday.  Saturday, I went to see Danica Patrick's first run in a NASCAR race at the Nationwide 300 in Daytona...so the install had to wait until today.

This is very easy mod to do:

Here is the old switch, with limited functionality.


To remove, turn dial to "off", push in and turn clockwise until you hear a "click"..then pull straight out.




Disconnect the wire harness behind the switch and replace with new euro switch.




Now I can control my "City Lights" while the car is either running or not....plus give me the ability to have future front driving/fog lights and rear euro fog light.

Here are my LED "City Lights"...



This mod took the time to drink 1/3 of a beer.. ;)
