i had just recieved my car back from the body shop 3 days ago from an accident. (guy hit me) anyway the whole front fenders were replaced and the body shop asked me if i would like fog lamps added to my car for free, i agreed. so i got the foglamps but they dont have a switch and only can be turned off if i turn my headlights off. so im in a parking lot backing out when a cop swerves behind me and tells me to turn my auxilary lights off when i inform him that the only way is if you turn the headlights off, he disagrees and then takes a look for himself and says he cant find the switch and writes me a ticket for driving with auxilary lights on, non correctable. i plan to fight this, do i have a case?

No. In your state you apparently are forbidden from using auxiliary lights... you owe the ticket.
Next time, before someone offers you something for free, check it out..... As a driver, it is your responsibility to know the traffic and driving laws of your state. If you don't, then you will get tickets.

you are responsible for the vehicle you drive
you will need to repair that fault that you let the body shop get away with - a separate switch for the aux lights
if you make the repair, you might get a dismissal
otherwise - u r sunk!
