As an alternative, I just paid $6 for a nice lighted switch from Schucks. it comes with a number of pop-in icons to show the switch function and four colored lenses (red, amber, green, blue). It looks "fine" in the dash and fits perfect.

Ryan, I have links in my tech write-up.
Cole Hersee has a JAVA driven menu and a special switch area on their site.
They make the Toyota switches I have.

Since we are on the subject, is the switch prewired in the cabin? Simple snap-in? If no factory fogs were installed, is all wiring there? How many watts can it handle? If any aftermarket is connect to the factory switch and wiring will it only work with key on ACC? Will they turn off same as headlights when door is open?

Breathe......
It is just a snap in, just pop out the cover and attach the wires to the switch. I don't know about wiring if no fogs were installed, but it only takes a few seconds to pop off the cover and look.

After resizing so many pics so many times it just becomes second nature in photoshop. I did it alot yesterday too.

Well since we're already way off topic.
I used image resize but I didn't like how small it was making it somewhere around 140x99 when I would set the width to 140. So I cropped it a little bit on the sides , about as much as I could see going and got it to about 140x117 if I remember right. Then I went into File>Save for web. There you can adjust the file size, file type, etc.. and there ya go.
