Removing stock driving light harness?
How hard would that be on a '91 wagon? I got the switch already and I would like to get the whole harness then hopefully track down jdm na driving lights. Or is it even worth it for me to try removing the harness from the wagon at the wrecking yard?

I do not believe there was a "stock" harness, unless it was something that was added by the dealer.
You can probably find a generic wiring harness for driving/fog lights that can be wired up to the switch. That may be an easier route to go.

Re: Removing stock driving light harness?
Well, as an update, I went back for some door panel trim and came home with a driving light harness. I beleve it was some semi rare '91 only option as it plugged into the light stalk harness under the steering column and the main power wire is the big black with red stripe wire that comes out of a grey plug on the bottom of the fuse box in the car. It was actually pretty easy to remove. Disconnect the single wire that goes to the engine bay, pull the engin bay side harness out which required taking the grille off, removing the battery, and threading the wire all over the place. For the interior side of the harness, I unplugged it from the light stalk harness, I couldn't get the splice connector to unhook so I cut the big black and red wire, unbolted the relay, and pulled the whole thing out. I didn't know for sure if it would plug in to my car but, to my luck, it did! So once I got home I went to work installing the cabin harness which was pretty easy. Splice into big black and red wire from fuse box, bolt the relay where it was in the '91, and plug it in to the light stalk harness. When I installed the engine bay side of it (had to wait for the car to cool) it was pretty easy, I decided my fog lights would be getting the new switch (don't want to lose the driving lights with the highs) so took my grille off, bolted the ground down, and ran the positive wire into the cabin and plugged it into the harness under the dash. All in all, it probably took me like 40 minutes to install the harness. And I didn't leave the engine bay wire loose, I've added my own aux. light loom so I tucked it into that and it looks totally factory. Wow thats a long post.
