Default Fog Lights Power Source

I finally got my fog lights wired and working correctly (checked with a temporary power source).

The kit came with a curcuit board.....where should the board be mounted?
Since this board is going to be hot,should I wrap it in electrical tape?

Also the kit came with a wire lead off the board that has a male connector on the end...is there a hot female connector unused that I dont know about?

if not, where should I get the power from....back of the ignition switch.

if I use the ignition switch...how do you connect the wire to it? should I cut of the male lead and put a eye on it?
do you pull the switch out from the front of the dash or do you reach up under to connect it.
I have never seen the back of a mustang ignition switch...is it a threaded bolt with a nut on it?

You should have had this stuff in your kit. There is a fat yellow wire in the main harness, near the wiper motor. The gray wire in the kit is attached to this wire with the Scotchlock in the kit. The eye on the gray wire attaches to one pole of the circuit breaker. The breaker is clipped or screwed to the pedal support near the wiper motor. SOme cars already had the gray wire in place, taped to the harness. The power lead in your fog under dash kit attaches to the other pole of the circuit breaker.

I have the Scott Drake kit from CJ for my 65 which is nearly the same thing, and it didn't come with any type of circuit board. Its just the OEM reproduction switch and that part that 2+2GT has above.

Maybe there is a chance that it was not meant to be included with the kit.

Do you have a picture of this part?

Is this what you got?
