I don't believe you can use the OEM fog switch wiring on a 3 prong switch... without some mods & at least 1 relay.

I've got a few OEM fog switches if you're interested.

2wd or 4x4 bezel?

I've got a 2wd that's just about finished modding & painting, it has 2 12v outlets & 2 fog switch openings, Gloss black.

I've got a couple 4x4 bezels that are in various stages of modding.
