does the uk spec late 80's turbo have a rear fog light ? my us import doesn't appear to have one but i think it is a requirement for the mot .........

if the uk one normally has one where is it located ?

cheers

johnny :?:
 
Fog light is mandatory for UK cars, IIRC it's an MOT point but I know that US cars dont have rear fog lights. Wouldn't have been fitted on the US to UK conversion ?
 
checked with our mot guys here (n.ireland) it is mandatory :worship:

so it looks like it should be behind this rear reflector in two locations , my acr only has font fog lights and a single fog light switch in dash , although it does have the three wires coming from the last fuse whcih would suggest some of the wiring is there although i can't seen to trace it to the engine bay light connectors it appears to be disconnected somewhere to the rear cabling ! nightmare to find so i might just run a new cable up from the fusebox and fit some relfectors and bulbs where they are supposed to be ........ pain in the butt :x

never mind the indicators & sidelights im having real fun with those on a flatnose ! sidelights are orange and to the side but need to be clear and to the front for mot ! , plus need indicators that can be seen from side as there are no side repeaters :?:

got a plan to convert them over and put clear indicator lenses in the front and use them as sidelights .........

mot on saturday morning and i have a lot of wiring to do !

oh yeah and the hazard lights don't work , just disables the indicators !
