420SEL rear fog light

SO, what's the correct way to wire the rear fog light inan 86 420sel?
I have the two click switch, but it provides power to all the connectors in the rear wire harness even without it being pulled of two clicks.

That's because the wire for the rear fog isn't there.

You need to connect two wires to the switch
- a wire to the rear foglight
- a wire to ground so the light in the switch will illuminate
