Rear Foglight - Running light AND brake light

That's good to know. Wish I knew that when I did this. I've had no issues with mine but ill probably switch it out for the Pilot one for an OEM look.

Nice work bowler. That's exactly how I wanted mine to behave.

I just did this mod recently. Keep in mind that the wire colors displayed on the illustration for the tail light harness are correct, so follow those colors. On your 7443 socket though, dont go by the wire colors, go by the A, B, and C labeling on the harness to discern which is the low filament, high filament, and ground wire.

I made the mistake of relying just on the wire colors and had my low and high filament wires reversed the first time. lol.

Were you able to use the honda plug, like mentioned above?

I'm glad I live in AU, we get FL as standard.
