The OEM light is a fog light, and is standard issue in some parts of the world. It requires a separate switch to activate it, next to the traction control button/

The OEM light uses a 7440 bulb (like the upper center brake light) and can easily be wired as a brake light. I've also seen someone replace the socket with a 7443 socket (same size, just with 3 wires for the dual filiment) and run it as a tail/brake light. All the extra wiring and switch are not needed to run it as such.

Dave,

You run a business and obviously you need to do what you need to do to be successful................then again..........I got stealth sliced bread!


Funny, if I ever decide to sell mine, the dibs list is about three deep and I've never even though about getting rid of it.


Dave

Yeah..............but had I done so, then I would've ended up in much the same situation as RX8Strakes, I wouldn't have been able to move them.
At least not until now. Murphy's law
