Default wanted Fog lamps and Fog lamp switch for 164

I am looking for fog lamps for my 1973 164. I have an American model that did not come with fog lamps from the factory. Also, I am looking for a fog lamp switch as well to go along with the lamps. I live in the United States so anyone interested in selling must be willing to ship.

Hi there!
For how long have you had your 164?... Reason why I ask - is because if you are new to the 164's you might also be new to the fact, that the fog lights for the 164 are among the most rare Volvo vintage items.. - and sorry for being rough - US Volvo people sometimes seem to be quite surprised towards what such Volvo parts can obtain over here.
A NOS set, original and true left and right - in orig. boxes - would be able to fetch arround USD 5-600 - economic crisis and poor USD exchange rate taken into consideration.
If you are still go - PM me I may be able to "help".

I know that they are highly sought after. It seems that every time someone is breaking a 164 that is the first thing to come up. But, I didn't know that they would fetch so much. Makes sense though. I must say that I won't be able to pursue the lights right now but I would like to get a switch. I guess this marks the beginning of my pursuit for fog lamps.

This will probably sound silly to you but I don't know what PM means. Like I said, I'm from the states.

I'll probably repost in a month or two for the lights.

I might have found some aftermarket lamps that will fit in the fog holes
