Default 1995 Fog Lights - Shorting plug location

OK, I know there was a full discussion about activating the wiring at the front fog light location ... please humor this old guy, I guess I just don't get it! .
I want to mount a set of aftermarket fog lights on my '95 XJS L4 2+2 Conv. There were none mounted originally. I have purchased an aftermarket 94 95 96 Jaguar XJS front fog light shorting plug/harness on eBay. Now just where the heck does this harness go? Is there anything else that needs to be done to activate the existing fog light wiring? Thanks for your patience.

If you replace both switch sets as in the post link above and install the shorting plug in the connector above the left inside fuse panel to the matching plug, you should have all you need. The relay and fuse are already installed at the factory. The front fog light, when switched on, will light while in low beam headlight operation. If you flash your high beams the fog light, by design, will turn off.

Thanks for the encouragement RonaldP. Is there a site that has these replacement switches? Not the solid gold switches, just the reasonably priced ones. - Cheers, Steve

FYI "Jag Services" has just cancelled that order for that set of fog lamp switches. No reason was given. Full refund was provided,
Back on the hunt for a set of switches.

Did you try David at Everydayxj.com? You might have to call/email if it's not on his website.

I still have not been able to locate the fog light switch set. Does someone know if DAC10203 and DAC10106 are identical parts?
Cheers.
