I don't think there would be a lot of point in doing it. The fog-lights have higher wattage bulbs and will flatten the Battery much quicker than sidelights. You could probably shoehorn some LEDs into the fog-light assemblies and switch them separately. LEDs use much less current for equivalent brightness, so you could easily leave them on overnight etc., plus no problem for tests.

Which fog lights front or rear? And if by parking lights you mean the fog to tail light conversion there's a guide on here somewhere.

what do you mean??

change the fogs so they come on with your lights?

my fogs come on with my lights with my brakes and also can still be used as fog lights...

also you wont need to remove this conversion as its road legal...

so from the rear i have

4 tail lights

5 brake lights

and 2 fogs....

also my high level and my two center brake lights(lights on boot lid ie the old fogs) flash for ten times then go solid

That's wat I want without the flashing if possible

you need two diodes and two bulb holders and a small wiring mod..they wont flash unless you buy the control boxes ive fitted..ive done this mod to lots members cars..

ps the instructions are in the workshop section

is the flashing mod illegal? or is it legal because you have solid brake lights aswell?

[ormi]

as long as it flashes for no more than 5secs then goes solid vosa say theirs no problem ive had mine fitted for years and had no trouble

[BenIS]

is there a walkthrough for this anywhere? I see there is for the fog/brake/tail conversion but not for the flashing.

i know its a few years on now but does anyone have a link or diagram of how this is done?

i would like to have 4 tail lights 5 brake lights and and keep the 2 fogs working as well

thanks in advance
