          Basically take the wire for your fog light back up and rewire into one of the reversing lights. Jim (Ems and Jim ) did mine and it's cool.

          Just remember to wiggle the rear array when you try to remove it....

          PM Jim if you want the proper techy explanation...

          You will definately lose your fog on Sunday - maybe remove it and tape up inside the bumper for the day???

            I did my own using the reverse light bulb and "clear" enamel modeling paint, see here for details of paint and the mod:

                      cut wire at foglight
                      cut +ve of o/s reversing lamp
                      join foglight feed to +ve of reversing lamp
                      change bulb from white to red
                      remove offending foglight from bumper (put bolt back in though else bumper will fall off!)
                      et voila!
