  1. Thanks Weasel. If I'm reading your post correctly, you are suggesting installing OEM switch and lights, and just make my own harness between the two, perhaps adding in an appropriate relay? I'd have preferred stock all around, but that just may turn out the simplest. A further question for the brain trust: As a newbie owner (3 weeks) I don't even know the location of the sjb. Under hood? Under dash?
  2. Curious Prinz!!... Did you ever get those foglights installed? And if so did you go OEM? Curious because I'm looking at the same and don't want to have to re-invent the wheel if you did it.
  3. I want to make 2 modifications to my 2010 Edge SE. First, I want to put in an after-market rear view mirror with compass and outside temperature indications (Cipa Model 36400). And secondly, I'd like to add oem fog lights. Installing the mirror involves removing the old one and replacing it with the new, routing the wiring down the drivers side A post. Does anyone have experience removing the old mirror? From what I've read, it can be hard to do. Additionally, how is the trim over the A post best removed so that it isn't damaged? As far as installing fog lights are concerned, there have been several threads about it, with the result that most think it can be done, but not sure how on the SE. I've already ordered the replacement oem headlight switch which incorporated the "fog" function and indicator. I'm hopeful that the existing wiring harness will also fit the new switch. As far as the lights themselves are concerned, it's my understanding that I only need a chromed plastic "bezel" that fits into the air dam/bumper, and the actual fog light that clips to the bezel. I have a source (other than Ford) for both. I may or may not need a new fog light wiring harness; I'll discover that when I actually look behind the air dam. If I need one, they are available at salvage yards. So my questions for installing the fog lights are: - Other than the headlight switch, fog lights, bezel and possibly fog light wiring, are there any other parts I'll need? Like a relay etc? - How do I remove the dash trim to access the headlight switch? Any particulay order of panel removal or hints to prevent damage? - Anyone have any experience or advice on this project? I'd sure appreciate any help or commentary. Thanks in advance
