I just live here, I'm not a Californian.

Lesson learned on the fogs, the design can use a switch as well.

Since I don't have a Z (yet), and I don't want to spend $130 dollars on the assembly if I don't have a Z (yet), can one of you look up the bulb type that is used in that brake light and I'll work up a bread board and a prototype on my dime. We'll see how that works out and then we can talk about sales.

Anyone? Does anyone have this info? I've redesigned the circuit and we're looking at a very cheap, very easy setup at this point.

I'll try to remember to do this tonight...I'm sure the bulb requirement is in the Owner's Manual.

Edit: If the intent is to use the rear fog as a rear fog (as well as warn when backing up) then I'd suggest using the bulb that comes in the rear fog assembly.

Let me know if you agree as I have the "fog" light bulb type written down at home.

My intent is to leave the JDM assembly intact, bulb and all. If I have the bulb number it makes design and testing easier.

Well then don't you actually need the bulb info for the fog light bulb?

I guess I don't quite understand what you are trying to construct here (although it sounds interesting)!
