I just want up-to-date facts not 2009 problems. On the old Z you could buy higher watt bulbs for reverse. Please advise.
THANKS
These are mandatory in most European countries per their Transportation department. They are a "fog" light. They are not intended to come on with the brake lights. European and Canadian equipped models have an extra notch on their head light multifunction switch for a "fog light".

They were not installed on NISMO models until the 2014 year model when the rear bumper was redesigned and the NISMO was introducted officially in Europe.

These cars are already pre-wired for it. But most people just opt to do a custom wiring job and tap into the running lights, brakes, etc.
