Default Do Scoobs have one rear foglight or two ?

Referring to the 01 WRX bug. Had the misfortune of having to use them in thick fog on the mororway last night, for the first time. Only one rear fog came on.

Is it simply blanked on the other side or should there be two ?

And are Halfrauds bulbs just as ggod as Subaru OEM ?

Mr Incredible,

I'm used to worrying about weight on my 8kg Cannondale Roadbike.

Probablynot much point on a 1385kg (or whatever) Bug !

...........Still, those tapes I never play must weigh a bit !!

if they put a second fog light in, use thicker body panels to give more solid feel, added more lights to the interior so you could see in the dark, added marker lights to the inside of the doors, plastic covers on the engine compartment to neaten up and hide everything, added bonnet hydrolic lifters, and boot auto openner / closer, more comfy seats

ie. Audi or VW'd it.. it would weigh a lot more..

the minimum is one fog light.. so you have one.

That'll explain why my mate reckons his Octavia vRS is "better built" than my Scoob !

Hi Andy

I would have to agree with your mate (wonder who) about the build quality on the VRS ( interior anyway), but as you know I have both an Impreza and an Octavia and as far as reliability, or longevity of wear and tear parts (shocks,springs, exhausts,electrics etc) is concerned it is no contest. In my experience anyway the scoob wins hands down.
