Nic Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 The UK rear lights are in a different combination and include rear fog lights, how easy they would be to fit to a J-spec car I don't know. See pic here. http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/vbpicgallery.php?do=big&p=6001 A lot of members convert their j-spec rears to incorporate fog lights, see how to guide here: http://mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=80479 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crashoverride Posted March 1, 2007 Author Share Posted March 1, 2007 sound Nic thanks. but that is the question realy what is the difference in wiring between the two can it be done? how easy could it be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D8MOA Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 you would be better just taking out a reverse light, putting a red bulb in and wiring the fog up to that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dangerous brain Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 There is an easy fog light conversion to do involving a relay and your existing lights. http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/attachment.php?attachmentid=17677&d=1120378350 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrickTT Posted March 2, 2007 Share Posted March 2, 2007 . but that is the question realy what is the difference in wiring between the two lots can it be done? anything is possiblehow easy could it be? much harder than modifying j-spec lights - uk bulb fail units are completely different Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest gzaerojon Posted March 2, 2007 Share Posted March 2, 2007 there's not a great deal of differance in the wiring, apart from 2 bulbs on the uk's being the other way round and the fog light. looking at the differance between both looms there is an extra wire in the block connector on the uk loom (for fog i assume) but on the j-spec there is one wire missing, but the connector block are the same. i have a couple of uk and j-spec looms here if you want them?

crashoverride Posted March 2, 2007 Author Share Posted March 2, 2007 thanks Jon, i would appreciate them and your expert advice please, im about as useful as a choclate fire guard when it comes to auto electrics. i have looked at all the fog light mod threads and they just blow my mind. so i thought uk spec lights have fogs in so should just be a process of droping them in and createing power and switch to the fogs? Jon is this right would the looms remove the need for a diy solution your thoughts and help please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
