Default Switches on console

Well my cars a 1SC Car so I dont have fog lights or anything, so I have 2 empty spots for switches right next to the CAMARO plate on the console above the radio.

Do they make just blank switches that fit there that could be used for Nitrous arming,etc?

Thanks

I had the same Camaro badge that covered two empty slots. I picked up a blank cover, and a fog light switch that I ran for my halo lights. I dunno about an aftermarket switch that would fit...

As you probably know the bezel has four switch holders. The emblem takes up two, and they are ASR and fog light switches that drop in. There are also blank plates to pop in should you need only one switch.

If you need a switch the cleanest thing to do is to pick up a used fog light switch or two and go from there.

My car has four switches:
- Factory fog
- Factory ASR
- Factory fog wired to halos
- Factory fog wired to interior leds

Where would I go about finding the stock fog switches? Anywhere online or would a junkyard be best. I just need it to arm nitrous, and the other to turn on the bottle warmer.

check the boards here for people parting out their cars. Can usually find some. I went to GM Sports here (an all GM junkyard) and picked up my necessary pieces for about $15 for the switch, harness, and blank plate. Do not forget to get the wire harness that goes to the back of the switch! If you need the wire colors, here ya go:

A - Light Green - ground for the ON indicator lamp
B - Black - ground for the switch illumination
C - Gray - power from the headlights for switch illumination
D - not used
E - Brown - power input for the fog lights (connect this to switched +12v)
F - Yellow - power output for the fog lights (connect this to the power wire for whatever accessory you want to power)
