I would really like to find out what that is for! I have the 2010 model too and I am going to install the lamp soon!

It ends up behind the passenger side kick I cut the wire then added a power source switched to the orange wire added a switch under my dash and the fog works perfect.

Does the p-side kick just pull off? Oh, and are we talking about the soft pad that is on the center console, or the plastic cover near the passenger door/footwell? I haven't tried it yet, but plan on using the existing harness much in the same way you did.

Also, another post said the ground wire in that harness is "functional". Does that mean it is actually grounded someplace? The reason I ask is that I want to run two hot leads to the EVO-R fog light I'm getting, since it has two functions (one for blinking, one for solid). I'd like to use the "ground" wire in that harness for power if possible. The light has a ground (which I will connect to the grounding point in the trunk), and will ground the switch elsewhere.

Thanks!
