Can you PM me the prices please?

The fog Lamp is way to bright to just turn on every time you turn your normal tail lights on.

It is a fog Lamp designed to cut through FOG, it is a very bright light. It would be to distractive to have on all the time.

You really need an on/off switch for it to be effective and utilized for it's designed purpose.

+1 me too, this would probably be the most useful for street.

If I were to design the ultimate rear fog, this is what I'd want.

1. Able to stay on with regular lights (same brightness as the rears) as to not upset other drivers when they are behind you.

2. Blinks when brakes are applied (4 times) then gets brighter like the brake lights.

3. Turns White when put in reverse.

4. Switch to disable

5. Oil slick, to disable closing in drivers. (ok, maybe I've gone too far now)

wow, this thing does a lot :bowrofl:

I'm in! The blinking back-up sounds GREAT! Anything is better then BLANK!!

I would like the 3rd brake light as part of the blinking reserve as well. The lower fog light is just that—low on the car. With the addition of the 3rd brake light it would really alert others that you are backing-up, especially if they were coming down a lane in a parking lot as you are backing out of your parking space.

The spot is so large, I think I would make a multi-use out of it. A superbright white LED cluster for backup, a 1157 superbright red LED cluster for tail-light/braking and a backup camera. The LED's could be shoe-horned into the opening and easily tapped off the existing brake light wiring harness, then all you need to do is run the wires for the backup camera up to the console and connect it to your display/video input. (obviously aftermarket as well...)

Rear Camera

I'm happy to report that my working J Spec rear fog light has been installed and is working quite well.

I had a dealer do the actual work but it was a fairly painless - we ordered a spare "heated seat" switch to put in the center (unused) space between the driver and passenger heated seat switches and it works perfectly.

The light came from motorsportauto.com plus the cost of the switch (about $17) and about two hours of labor.

I don't know how often I'll ever actually use the rear fog but the real thing is a lot more attractive than the dummy unit our American spec cars get plus it's nice to know the light is there if conditions warrant using it.

I am interested in the light for reversing and I think it would be a bonus if we had the to turn it on for when the conditions apply for needing a fog light..

I'm sure it can be wired up to do both or either...it just depends on how much you want to get into your car's wiring...I decided to simply make it a functional rear fog light!

This is the "dummy unit" that was removed. The differences between the dummy unit and the functional unit is primarily the lens itself and the bulb assembly.

The "center" switch is the switch that controls the rear fog - it is a "heated" seat switch and occupies a space that is usually empty (covered by a "blank" switch cover - no cutting was required).

This is the unit turned on - it will only operate if the car is running.

These images were taken with my camera phone and not in the best lighting conditions but hopefully they are good enough to give everyone an idea of what the unit looks like installed and turned on!

You are a pioneer. Thanks!

Nice work. +Rep

Can you describe what avenue you took with the wiring? Did you use the ECM bus that some other guys routed the foglight wiring to, or did you just wire the light and switch to the ignition?

awesome! i want one! :D

Well, keep in mind that I didn't do it...the lead tech at a local dealership did it. The wiring harness already includes the wiring for the fog light so all the tech had to do was wire it from the BCM in the cabin (at least that's the way he was supposed to and was planning to do it :)).
