Fog Lights

[Mr. Mac]

Looking into having a pair of amber LED fog lights installed behind the front mesh grille so that they are stealthy and protected. While exploring this area I found what appears to a 2-wire plug that isn't connected to anything, just secured to a holder. Has anyone done this yet or happen to know what this plug is for? There's no way I'm lucky enough for it to be a pre-wire for auxiliary lighting, but figured I'd ask and maybe get lucky.

That looks like a bog standard Nissan ambient temperature sensor

Here's a peak at the type of lights I'm looking at for this. Very compact and powerful. Should mount perfectly to bottom of large horizontal aluminum crossbar that's tucked back behind the grille.

Are there any switch blanks in the Z?

I know where to get OEM Nissan style switches for the last 2 generations of switch designs....

There are two blanks in the NISMO version center console since the Recaro seats (which are fantastic BTW) that come in this version unfortunately aren't heated, so the seat heater switches that normally go there in Sport/Performance version are blanks. My plan is to use one of those blanks for the fog lights switch with an OEM or OEM-looking 2-position switch (preferably illuminated, tastefully), so yes, definitely would like to learn a source for that. Thanks!

Are those blanks 1-3/8" x 3/4"?
