nice... mystery solved. negative karma points to whoever built this using a switch like that.
Having said that, given the choice between having a Gladiator with an Autozone switch and not having Gladiator - I'd choose the former.
Last I checked on Jeep's EU sites, only some countries even had a Wrangler, there was no sign of Gladiators anywhere.


'merica! F*ck yea!

I guess pickups don’t sell nearly as well over there. A few people here have installed the euro taillights, so at least we know they exist.

In my case because I didn’t want a Diesel engine . Too expansive fuel costs ( 7.19$/gal compare to 2.64$/gal for LPG)and EU version is absolutely ugly with Liz fenders and disgusting front bumper and small tires

Totally agree . Not a nice work . But I will fix it soon . Hopefully they didn’t put it in the middle of the dashboard 😂 can you imagine we don’t even have Rubicon in EU gladiator. Only sport Sahara and overland

Or use the aux switches.
Using those for two other sets of off-road lights an air compressor and an air locker. More lights on more switches isn't a goal I'm interested in right now.

Used up with two sets of off-road lamps, a kill switch that kills all of the offroad and fog lamps at once, air compressor and air locker.

yes it’s also an option. But sadely they are only 4 aux . If it was like the Bronco with 6 you can definitely use one for the rear fog light . 4 isn’t really a lot .
I think the proper option would be to use the EU OEM light switch with the double fog logo and made a clean wire connection . But it require more time and probably a bit more money. Other option is to connect the rear light together with the front . Specially when you know that here in Belgium it’s forbidden to drive with front fogs light on if they aren’t fog.

The fog light is almost twice more powerful than the rear tail lights . You know Europe and his weird and specials rules …. Good or not I don’t know it’s just the law .
