Managed to pick up a set of STI tail lights for my UK classic today. Has anyone retrofitted fog lights in to them? I didn't think at the time about the lack of fogs on JDM cars!

Fit a red bulb to the D/S reverse light and re-wire it as a fog light

I read that from a few other posts, thanks! I was wondering if anyone had fitted them in to the cluster anywhere else?

Cool, thanks! I'll go with the red bulb in the reversing spot then. Do any of you guys use LED tail light bulbs?

Fitted a red LED bulb in to the reverse bulb holder and moved the pin across on the plug. Looks like it was meant to be a fog light all along!

Lol, it's easy to swap the reverse pin over to the fog position and stick a red bulb in.
