1) In the normal light cluster
2) Thin one, like spoiler brake light fitted below the rear numberplate
3) Inserted into bumper, looks good on a red car

You should be able to adapt one from a scrapyard mate! Or failing that go to halfords and see what they have and whether you could integrate it into the bumper. On the Evo I used a spare red lens! got a bulb holder off a scrapper, and drilled a hole in the back. It's the one on the right on the boot lid! Can't see the join

UK cars have them anyway, integrated into the cluster. The classic shape car had very different clusters for UK and Europe vs the rest of the world for this reason.

Mine is the same as Brun's. Make sure you check it before MOT as mine recently stopped working as it was corroded inside. May have had something to do with **** from the road hitting the joint of the lense and wearing it away.
Also I forgot to lower mine down for MOT last year. Good job I was present as the garage are not abliged to touch things like that themselves so it could have failed

Do you get a detailed weather report off the met office each day then?
