Galliano Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 Basically I noticed JDM rear lights light up on two parts of the rear clusters on the Paseo, whereas the UK spec models only light up at one part. The other part is used as a fog light.How would I be able to weave around this and make that part light up as the rear lights as JDM would.. Is there a way I can splice it in to the loom that it can do this?This is how they light up at the moment..This is how I want them to light up..I have a spare wiring loom that has the rear lights attatched, can I just chop one part off and splice it on to the wire for the rear lights or is it more complicated than that? Also how would I work it with fog lights and keeping it in the same spot? Or would I have to get a small aftermarket one fitted?CheersSam Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Galliano Posted January 17, 2011 Author Share Posted January 17, 2011 Thats champion. But what do I do about foglight then? I mean... Its a legal requirement.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
joel_ep91 Posted January 17, 2011 Share Posted January 17, 2011 instead of chopping the fog light wire off join it back up an put a double element bulb in surely that would work?so its getting the constant power for side light then when you put on fog ligt it shines brighter just like the brake lights and side lights Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Galliano Posted January 17, 2011 Author Share Posted January 17, 2011 Brilliant. Thanks for that bro, hopefully that would make sense. But i'm not totally sure if its foglights on both sides.. both sides have bulbs there, but I thought it was only one foglight on most cars? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
_shaun_ Posted January 17, 2011 Share Posted January 17, 2011 some have 1 some have 2 just like reverse lights just depends on car makes no dif for an mot Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Galliano Posted January 17, 2011 Author Share Posted January 17, 2011 Il check the wiring, if both have the same colour wire leading to them then they would both be fogs. While i'm at it il get some foglight wire and wire up my front foglights too... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lukEp Posted January 17, 2011 Share Posted January 17, 2011 It might already have a double filament bulb in, if you were only closer sam I'd sort it out for you! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Galliano Posted January 17, 2011 Author Share Posted January 17, 2011 Your too late, they were done and dusted by the time you posted Was a tiny ball ache but alot easier once explained easily by Mr Halfords man. I learnt more with him in 20 minutes than I have over the last year and a half at college.I was gonna make a how to, but got too fussy by the time I remembered.BeforeAfterDid alot of chopping about to get it to light up and use the double filliment socket but got there in the end. Foglight works on both lights too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
