Non-UK rear light (fog light woes)

Post by teenspirit7 »

Been trying to hunt down a rear right (facing back of car) black light housing. Finally found a potential light thanks to Blueshark, however the light is the EU (not uk) variant so the fog light spot is covered up.

Can I just follow the first bit of this guide (noting that the lights are in a different order on EU lights)?

(drill out the Fog cover)

Any way to make a reflector plate?

Can anyone see any potential problems?


Cheers

i never bothered with a relfector plate as i thought all lights have them.
but yes i drilled out my fog lamp blank and inserted another bulb so i have left and right rear fog lights.
