Does it actually control the valve on my bottle? Or do I leave the bottle valve open all the time and it is in inline valve that the switch operates? Thanks!

Your best bet is to call up the dealer and compare part #'s if there the same there is your answer.

92-94 sc's don't have fog lights. They have cornering lights. They only come on when you use your turn signal. And it only turns on the side that you are signaling. You have to convert them to foglights. There is a write up on here if you search in the SC section. I'll see if I can find it.

Just to let you know that won't be a fun project. You would be close to having to remove the whole damn dashboard thats how it feels. Your going to have to remove the glove box and the lower section underneath it. If I can remember correctly you have to take the center console out also. Then once all of that stuff is removed there are wing nuts that should be either 4 or 5. The newer SC's changed the wood trim holder bolts to something else. I ended up using some small pliers to take them off. All in all it wasn't fun.
