You going to wire them independently from each other or just have a spare switch?
How much room is back behind the dash where the HUD should go? I would hate to drill a hole for a switch just to find out there isn't enough room.

There should be enough room to fit back there. It has room with a HUD switch. I don't see why not. That Honda switch is a bit long, look at the one I posted for a Saturn Sky.

That fog lamp switch looks like it has 2 settings a low beam and high beam. Are you going to wire it where you can turn DRL's on and Fog Lamps simultaneously or one set on etc.

I'm thinking to its two independent switches in one casing. Projector fogs when I want them, DRLs when I want them, or both when I want them.

OR

I may just use that single fog light switch for the projector fogs and tap into the side markers for the DRL

Cool deal. I'm gonna try and keep the new fog lights as simple as possible. DRLs are good to go so I'm gonna leave those alone. Just move them from the SS fascia to the ZL1 fascia and reconnect them.

I think I'm going for the simplest method also, just don't want to drill any holes in my dash :(

2SSRS would the PNP for the DRL and fogs draw to much current if they come on with the parking lights how would I wire them so I don't hurt my car?

Pretty sure he will use relays that draw very little power that trigger the lights and the heavy lifting will come from your battery.

I'd be interested in the adapter but I don't want DRLs and projector fogs on at the sametime.

How hard is it to make and wire up a switch?

To the switch it normally has three prongs on the back. 1 is a power source to one prong, 1 prong is a ground, and the other one is the Auxliary(which normally is the red wire to the fog lamps). This is a basic on/off switch.

I don't have a sunroof, so it just has the blank where the button would be. That would be a great place to put it.

No sunroof here also. Can't pass up a free spot. I was thinking of we're to put a small light for when the light is on
