Hi Guys,

I tried to download the pdf file for the rear fog lights to work. Could someone who has downloaded it send it to me?

Thanks,

Steve..

The link to the instructions did not work. Can someone send me a link or copy. Lawrence

Good instructions, first rate photos and text – If you go the paperclip route, you need not remove the whole light assembly, just unplug the harness and add the clip. It really does look nicer with both lights working.

Tom; I would assume that it is possible but I’m not 100% certain. I think there was a pretty long thread this past summer on MINI2 about this issue. Why MINI took these away from the US market to begin with I’ll never know.

Great job. Just one other question – With the addition of the euro switch block (including the rear fog switch) is it possible to have the car programmed to activate the rear fogs? Or is there additional wiring/cabling necessary? Or does anyone really know yet? Only asking BC I’d prefer to have the use of rear fog, rather than additional brake lights. [I know that on the e39 BMW for the US we could replace the switch on the dash, but it also involved quite a bit of wiring.]

I know what I’m doing Saturday afternoon. A little wire, some solder, and poof, new improved brake lights. THANKS Gabe, Steve, and Mike.
