Could I just connect one of the wires to Pin 7 of the D2 connector on the combination meter like you said?
Pins 3 and 4 are the input / output of the fog switch, so without the switch I am not sure whether they are left to float or what (I'd go out and put a meter on there to find out for sure, but I am in the middle of packing for vacation).

Actually, looking back up at what 1NZ posted, when you are using the console switch, it gets connected across pins 3 and 4, so it acts the same as the stalk switch. The key is that the OEM pin 3 wire is pulled from the stalk connector and the console fog light switch inserts between the OEM pin 3 wire and the connector. Pin 4 does not get touched or connected to on the connector.

If you just "tapped" your switch onto pins 3 and 4 then that would explain the issue you are having.

I mean if you spliced your wires onto the existing wires, as opposed to pulling the pin out of pin 3 and inserting the new wire into pin 3.
