      Mines the same, but someone has dipped the bulb in red paint... don't know the details, but it works a treat. looks stock aswell.

            Never even thought of doing it that way & it is probably the best way to go about altering the "naff" fog light that we've all had to replace at least once.
            If its not broke don't fix it.

                      Confused..

                      Im with you Tony..stuck mine in the bumper too

                      For the reverse light folks, the red LED bulbs used for brake lights would be perfect (your brake lights are same wattage as fog lamps) just ensure you get brake light only, not tail-light/brake light combo

                        I intend to cut mine into the bumper once the weather improves.

                        I'm also going to cut some extra reversing lights in there 'cause I'm fed up of not being able to see where I'm going when in "backwards".

                          I used one of these on mine.

                          I also fitted the rear lights from a surf with a rear tyre carrier so I have 4 reversing lights instead of 2. (still crap with the limo tints though )

                            As I have a big flat tailgate panel with no spare, I'm toying with the idea of using some thin lenses with low profile LED panel behind, and surface mounting them. Hoping to make something that looks stock too.

                              I'm thinking along the same idea and going to source some low-profile LED's for the bumper. I meshed, filled and sprayed the bumper, so doubt I'd get away with cut-outs in it. Might also fit front fogs, but do have a bullbar I can fix those to, unless I can find some that fit the recesses in the plastic bottom trim.
