FAQer selling rear fog switches?

[net30]

Saw a post a couple of months back from a member selling orange, green and purple rear fog light switches for the console. Can't find in the search - any suggestions?

Tom, which one do we realy want, the one that screws on or the snap-on type ?

without knowing first, does the color would mean anything to the type above ?

someone please buy 190554247884 on e-bay right now and sell me the green one !!! (17,99$ for 3 !!!)

i cant bid since the mofo only ship to usa...

The correct '02 application would be the threaded ones, not clip in. Also, green or orange button rather than the e21 purple. These are early e21 clip in switches.

they can be made to work isnt it ? (size wize, not wiring) ?

[tjones02]

Yes, the hole must be enlarged to use the clip in style. The wiring is the same.

other than the e21, what other BMW used theses kind of switches ?

e12 ?

[tjones02]

Looks like only e21, but I could only find the switch as a euro rear fog application in RealOEM. They were used as front fog switches in the USA as accessories. I really wish RealOEM and BMW ETK would show accessories as well as standard parts.

fok !!

i found a e21 rear defrost switch in my scrap of parts. guess what the center button goes off like the fog light switch AND the hazard button too !!. the plastic insert can be removed and wiped off of its defrost logo...yes i know it is very dirty.

i think i am lucky, my friend who own a early e12 518 imported from Izrael decided to part it out, and apparently he said there is a rear fog switch with german script on it that means "rear fog light". He said he will give it to me if i want it...i didnt saw it yet, but i think it is not round but somehow oval...M. Jones...any knowledge about that ?

thanks.

[tjones02]

Usually e12 hazard/fog switches are oval, though I don't know for sure about early euro ones....

Reviving this thread - I'm looking for a fog light switch for a 72 tii.  I'd prefer a green switch if possible.  Anyone recommend a good spot to purchase one of these?
