New Foglights with Wireless PILOT switch

I did the standard install for my fogs this morning, but used a wireless remote switch by PILOT, rather than the on-off switch by the emergency brake. I had to bring a single wire into the cockpit for power thru an Add-a-Fuse under the driver's dash. I found a ready-made hole behind the styrofoam block under the area where my left heel would rest.

I now have an On-Off switch on a remote fob; and can activate it when the ignition is on. When I turn the ignition Off, the fogs go off, too.

All in all, a rather easy install, took about two hours. I ended up completely taking the plastic nose off the front. Also chaanged out my horn while there; installed a pair of Framms

Is this the remote switch you're referring to?

Also, some pics of the installation would be great, since this seems to be much cleaner.

TIA!

Here's a link to the PILOT remotes. I toss the lights on the shelve, and just use the remote and the sensor.

I've bought the remotes by themselves on eBay for just a little bit.
