shelly_star Posted September 19, 2007 Share Posted September 19, 2007 Hi newbie, welcome to uksc, can you tell me what exactly you need to do? do u have to fit a fog light? or have you already got fogs in the main rear clusters? as i know that some glanza's have a separate one either in the rear bumper, or under the bumper, and some has them in their clusters like mine does.

Its the wireing i need help with to be honest. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
shelly_star Posted September 19, 2007 Share Posted September 19, 2007 ok when u turn your lights on, do 4 side lights come on in the rear clusters? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
deadly_b16 Posted September 19, 2007 Author Share Posted September 19, 2007 as far as i know 2 lights turn on. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SiCaln Posted September 19, 2007 Share Posted September 19, 2007 i have a spare one if u need it, i had mine wired into my rear clusters Quote Link to post Share on other sites
shelly_star Posted September 19, 2007 Share Posted September 19, 2007 Ok, thought it would be easier if they were in your clusters you see, so urs light up like this right? with just two lights?These probably different to your clusters but works same way:because mine can light up like this, 2 on each side:As for the bottom two light bulbs, were originally two fog lights, which i took out for now, will put them back in later. But i've put a fog light bulb in just now, on the right hand cluster to show you what the fog light would look like :But if you haven't got the wiring for that then you gotta start from scratch which i can't really help you with.

deadly_b16 Posted September 19, 2007 Author Share Posted September 19, 2007 yep only two lightys com on just cheacked!...anyone on here fitted one before?? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
keirz Posted September 19, 2007 Share Posted September 19, 2007 mine has had the reverse lights disconected and re routed to a switch on the dash. then had the bulbs switched to red. this seems to be what has been done to get it through mot. but the down side is i have no reverse light. lol.

SiCaln Posted September 19, 2007 Share Posted September 19, 2007 pretty big (and MOT failing) down side i'd say Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sparky Posted September 19, 2007 Share Posted September 19, 2007 Thats mad not testing reverse lights Quote Link to post Share on other sites
deadly_b16 Posted September 19, 2007 Author Share Posted September 19, 2007 thats crazy!!....how did you wire it to your dash?? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
keirz Posted September 19, 2007 Share Posted September 19, 2007 that i cant help you mate, as it was like that when it came.the only thing i can think is that the reverse lights are wired to the reverse on the gear stick (guessing at that, but it may be as its gotta know when to put reverse light on some how) . if you was to take this and put it to a switch from halfords or something.this is guess work from me so dont take it as writen mate but it may be worth a look.its not an ideal solution. as people dont know when your reversing. ie in car parks waiting to reverse out and no one seems to let you (because they cant see your trying to reverse!) and also reversing in the dark is a bit scary as you cant see shit!phil aka nanglebadger on here wired a fog in to his car if a remember so he may come along soon.

nathy boy Posted September 20, 2007 Share Posted September 20, 2007 think all u need is a relay and a switch where you take it from i dont know, (as i will find out when i pinch one out of a smashed up evo 7) but in theory all you need is a permanant live to the switch a switchwire out to the fog light and an earth (from the foglight to an earthing point on car i.e a bolt that goes into some metalwork) to complete the circuit.
