My Storm has had one of the reverse lights "converted" to a fog light. The lens has been tinted to match.

One of mine had front fogs fitted when I got it, I still have the foglights but never refitted them as being a 78 meant I could delete the rear as well for a cleaner look.

Can understand wanting them if you drive it in the fog though.

I never liked the square front fogs on mk1s. always thought they should be round to match the headlights

i saw a pic of one with 2 round foglights placed above the bumper either side of the grill badge so it looked like it had 6 headlights. i thought it looked pretty sweet but cant find the pic :/


If it's got tits or tyres it's trouble but I always go back for more.

I have a red Ultrabrite LED Bulb in the offside reverse light.
Looks stock until you put the foglight on, then it illuminates red.

Liking that one! Rear mounted under the bumper looks very afterthough-ish. Might give that a try

Not sure what to do at the front. Number plate is mounted on the nearside, not the middle. Not sure I like it with dogs either. Some more thinking needed
