PLEASE PRESS THE CAPS LOCK KEY ON YOUR KEYBOARD ONCE, THANKS!
Sure you can live without 500hp, but it\'s languishing.

No seriously, please take off your Caps Lock, it makes it look like you are shouting.

Not good Netiquette     s:D :D s:D  

And, on a UK car the light is just the alarm indicator, but it is on the left of the wheel.

I think Peter answered your question in the post above.

The japanese MR-S doesn't have a rear foglight, but its required in the UK. There is also a requirement that the foglight switch illuminates when "on". One of the spare switch spaces to either the right or left of the steering wheel is usually where importers install these.

So thats my bet as to what you're looking at too. Your foglight should be wired into your lights, so it only works when your lights are on.

Hope this helps

On mine it's on the right of the wheel below the passenger window lock. AIUI the alarm is fitted by Toyota in country not by the factory so they probably just fit the light in any available blank switch position.
