  • No more broken fog lights

    Just finished fitting fog lights into the back bumper. I got sick of buying new ones every time I want out to play. It was not a hard job to do, it was all done in one day, but if u are going to do it don’t put them as high as I have done. The underside of the bumper is not flat, so put them below the rubber tread that should be fine. I think it was well worth all the work and I like the look of it and the big thing is no more new fog lights to buy.

              What about replacing the driver's reverse light with the fog light?
              Took my friend 5 mins to rewire it, all I needed was a red bulb.

              Saves a lot of cutting and hassle!

                  Isn't this illegal? I have an idea you are only allowed two rear fog lights. In fact just looked at the Construction and use regs-would you believe that if the vehicle was built before 1 April 1980 there is no limit on the number of rear fogs!!! After that date two max.

                      silly laws r us... i nearly got done under driver hours regs because i had a 46 minute break then 20 minutes later on!... wouldn't have been illegal to have 25 minutes followed by 20 minutes!... shorter breaks but within the law!... it's crazy mental!
                      nee nar nee nar, i'm a fire engine!

                          Bog Standard from Halfrauds as CHRIS had my old ones because the brackets snapped while offroading.
