Well I finally got fed up of swapping my reversing light for my lower tail light in order to make a fog light for MOT and bad weather days so here’s my solution:
Grab a dual filament bulb holder I got mine from here
Bulb Holder BAY15D Straight Cable Exit (BH0014) - PAIR
These will take standard brake/tail light bulbs that have two filaments and a bayonet fitting.
Your have to work out which one of the black or red wires will be your high or low filament in your bulb in my case one of the blacks was my (high beam)fog light and the red my tail light.
If you have an EK9 imported by Duncan you will recognise these wires and all ready have a 12v switch supply fitted.
Results
No more odd tail lights when the fog light is fitted and two working reversing lights.
Fog light
Didn’t take me long at all just cut and solder 3 wires and done hope someone finds this useful.
Just one done for now to show you the difference in lighting its quite easy to run the 12v switched supply across to the otherside and have two foglights.
