Fog and reversing lights

Can anyone give me a picture of where they should be fitted on the rear nudge bar please? Ive tried a variety of locations but they all look wrong.

Couple of questions:

Do I need both lamps fitted for SVA or just fog light?

Am I right in assuming min 250mm clearance from bottom of viewable part of lens to ground?

Thanks

Re: Fog and reversing lights

have a browse roung the gallery there'll be hundreds of pics.

You dont need the reversing light, but you do need a fog and it has to be e marked. £8 from helfrauds.

the fog also has to have a min seperation from the brake light. (100mm) and be on the offside of the car. height from 250 - 1000mm

Re: Fog and reversing lights

cheers for the compliment, the exact colour is Merecedes Alexandrite Green, it has a slight metallic finish but not too obvious, used in the mid late 90's.

Re: Fog and reversing lights

Hi Andy

Where did you get the chrome edged fog lights from, has I am in two minds what to use, external one or a peugot 206 or similar moulded in too the lower valance, but I was thinking of fitting it in the centre.

Re: Fog and reversing lights

They are available from SVC, Stafford Vehicle Components tel 01827 60251, but they are not sva compatable as the lenses are not e-marked, but great for after in my opinion.
You just have to make up the bracket to fit under the bar etc but thats straight forward enough.
