| Hey guys just a question that popped out of my head when I was having a rally discussion with one of my co-workers at work today and thought that might help against the recent tailgaters that have been tailgating me.
Rear fog light only found none for our ae101's but a stupid load of them for the Hondas. Just curious if Toyota made one for our AE's :/ | |

| Well that last pic shows an AE101 with the rear fog light!!! That is exactly how you could do yours... just snip the brake light wire and wire in your own switched power. | |

| i was really thinking about doing that but i saw this on the 8th gen corolla  but then i just remembered something long ago, when the rolla was just passed down to me from my dad, i was looking for stuff on google and i saw an F1 Style rear fog lamp in the center of the rear bumper, right above where you put the license plate. i cant find that picture today sadly. but im thinking about doing this instead...  then do a "flashing Brake light" from KahTec | |

| ^^^ that's what we've been talking about here... I have seen a few with the light cut into the bumper. I'm not a fan, but if you need it for safety, it is what it is! | |

| Sometimes the tail light is not visible enough... hence the name "fog" light. | |

| Rear foglight have a reflector inside, thats why it is much more brighter as normal taillights. Here in NL : As already said its mandatory to have one on the left side. Both sides is also OK. why only left? Thats because people cannot get confused and see them as brakelights. So when a car comes with figlights on both sides, its recommended to take the right bulb out. Customised my hatchback taillights years ago and took the reflector out. Never had MOT problems wit it.  | |
