Hi guys,


I'm thinking of getting a JDM STi (blob or hawk) and I know that JDM cars don't have fog lights but that they can be retrofitted by removing one of the reverse lights and wiring it up with a red bulb. My question is: can you use a UK fog light button so that there isn't an aftermarket switch? Basically so I can keep the interior looking standard.
Also, I've seen a few cars that don't appear to have this done - how do they pass MOT and be UK road legal?


Cheers.

If you have a spare blank then yes,
My JDM has spots,IC auto etc so no spare blank.

Cheers. There aren't any JDMs for sale that I want at the mo but the ones I've seen seem to have a blank space for it.

All depends if you have a friendly MOT'er or not, Ive never had one fitted on my jdm sti

More fool you then, it isnt to help you, the fog light is for others to see you ,
not exactly big and clever to not have one.

Hardly more fool me....

I have over 500hp and it is a track car, If the weather is that foul I wouldnt be going anywhere in the scooby anyways. Id take my VXR.

I think they should do the same as motorbikes and have a day time only mot so I could remove my headlights etc too.
