Default PIAA 1100X Light System Installation?

I am about ready to install a PIAA 1100X light system on my 2001 Coupe in place of the stock fog lights. I would appreciate any installation tips. Specifically, where I would find the connector to plug the system into so I can use the stock switch on the dash rather than the one provided in the kit. Thanks in advance for your help.

Cut PIAA 1100X switch off near top of switch. You will see three wires. Only wire you need is white wire. Hook white PIAA relay control wire to Purple wire you will find on stock fog light socket. When you turn on your fog lights using factory switch, you will power up purple wire used on fog light socket, which will power up white PIAA relay wire. Enjoy the light :)
