Could be this, should actually cost you around $30.. it's 3 screws and a connector once the dash is removed. You can see how to remove the dash here:


Here is a dimmer switch:

No fogs:

Headlight Switch w O Fog Light 10406799 00 05 Impala Monte Carlo | eBay

Fogs:

B5H2 Chevy Impala Monte Carlo Headlight Fog Switch 00 05 GM Fog Light | eBay

If you need any help, let me know, I pull the dash off on about a weekly basis lol
