Default Jdm bug eye lights on uk car

If you were to put JDM bug eye lights on a UK bugeye would any work need to be done or is there a hole ready for the fog light?

Also they would look silly as the rear bumper has a semi circle hole cut in it for the brake light on blob/hawks.
The bug lights dont have that part and are flat along the bottom
Please go back and read it...

Possibly some reconfiguration of the internal loom connector required (different part numbers) or swap in the UK loom.

Looking at uk vs jdm It looks like theres 5 bulb holes.
Without the car in front of me I cant see if the fog light bulb/housing would fit the reverse hole.
