Fog Lights

I got fog lights for christmas and tonight I put in all the wiring. Im wondering where to mount the lights though. Any ideas?? Any pics you might have would be cool too. Also, theres a little "LED" switch that I mounted to the dash and the damn thing wont turn off. Its a lighted switch and even when the ignition is off the switch is still lit up. Its a Summit Racing fog light package so if anyone has dealt with these before lemme know if I did something wrong to make that light stay on.

where is the LED getting its power from? it is getting it straight from the battery or from an accessory? If it is getting it from some source that have current all the time, such as the battery, then it shall stay on all the time, but if you hook up the power to something that only comes on when the car is on, it will only come on then, the fuse box is a good source of that power.

The easy way to do it is find a fuse in the fuse box that only comes gets power when the car is on, such as the stereo, pull the fuse out, place your wire in it and put the fuse back

Here is a pic of my car, my switch is supposed to light up but doesent, I got these for $20, and they seem to help sometimes.



And here is a how-to I posted a while back
http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/t57370.html

I miss the way my car looked with clears all around, I tinted the bumper lenses black, and I tinted my clear corners slightly and didnt like em, so im running stocks in the side markers, still seeing if I can paint thinner out the corner lenses.

Bringing this one back again. Anyways, I FINALLY got around to finding somewhere else to get the power from and anywhere I put it, the LED is still always on. I tried the 3 spare outlets in the fuse box, other fuses like stereo, defroster, etc... It even goes on when I touch it to a place thats grounded!! I dont understand. Any help?
