Default Switch blanking plastice

Hi, im after a blanking pannel which goes next to my fog light switch and my IC spray switch
Where could i get 1 of these from?

Also i have my rear fogs connected up 2 an after market switch, would it be possible 2 get a real foglight switch conected up to this?
If so where can i buy 1 from?

Which year car is it?
You can wire up the fogs to a switch, I still have a facelift classic style switch someone, I think its front fogs though. But it can be used in the same way. Not sure about the blanking plug.

You'll get an OE switch from a breakers, or a dealer. Breakers will be LOTS cheaper

Would this switch be the same fitment as my car?...
Now i dot meant wires as fitment as these are home made wires on mine for some reason, as long as it will fit in the socket the same as the others and matches, thats what i mean...
eBay.co.uk: SUBARU IMPREZA REAR FOG LIGHT SWITCH OFF X PLATE (item 320132886170 end time 05-Jul-07 19:00:00 BST)

Difficult to say. I was involved in a VERY protracted thread earler this year, where a guy was trying to put a foglight switch in place, and it wouldn't fit the connector that was there. There seem to be different types even in the same year of manufacture

Where abouts are you? I've used GradeA who are at Hayfield in the High Peak, and are excellent to deal with.
I've also heard good things about Essex Subaru breakers.

I'm sure there are others too.

That switch looks as though it'll FIT your dash, but can you connect to it? You MAY need the wiring connector from behind it too, NOT easy to get;(

I have had part of the dash out today, and it seems the rear fog lamp connector is there on the loom, who ever fitted the rear fog lamp just sniped 2 wires off the connector and connected it to a aftermarket switch.
so im guessing with the correct switch i can reconnect the wires back up and have it running fine off the loom.
Just gotta find the correct switch lol

Im actually in the midlands (Coventry, not far from Birmingham)
