You could still use the OE switch, but just use it to power a seperate relay for the lights and run a pair of wires to them. That way you get the functionality of the original switch, but don't have to worry about frying the factory wiring. Wouldn't be too much work at all.

Stylin'SuperCrew,
1)The air dam does not seem to hang any lower than the stock valance. I will measure them when I get home tonight and post here. *It is not any lower than the stock valance, the stock unit has an lip or step at the bottom that the Storm dam doesn't if the new air dam hangs even 1/8" lower I would be surprised.*
2)I was told by Stillen that a Street Scene insert would be out in Feb to fit the Storm air dam. They also told me that the opening is not the same as the Lightning, but I think a Lightning insert could be fit to it with minor modifications if any were needed at all.

Xenon,
I got the lights at the same time but they were not included. They were about $50 and were from American Products Co.. They are not very good in my opinion PIAA 510's will fit they are the same size 4" round but cost $180. I'm waiting until after I put my new Nakamichi CD 45z head unit in to get the 510's.
Love the Lightning front on your rig I thought about going that way too then I found the air dam. Decided to be a bit different while still getting the look I wanted.
