vwdeviant 0 Posted July 19, 2006 Ok as the accountants seem to have got to the rear lights of the Corrado I was wondering if any-one written a how to on adding a second (passenger side) fog light? Only one may be legal but it looks "cheap" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dec 1 Posted July 19, 2006 The point of having one fog light is so that you can distinguish it from a pair of brakelights! The bulb holder on the non foglight side can take another fog light bulb for LHD cars though afaik....so it would just be a case if cutting out the blank in the back of the light unit Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kevin Bacon 5 Posted July 19, 2006 VW's have had single rear fogs for years! It's only there to act as a beacon, so the number of lit panels isn't critical, but I agree, it does look cheap, or like one has blown and the owner is too lazy to replace it! Beware that the offside rear fog cluster does not have a metal insert to protect the plastic from warping like the nearside one does..... but I have two fogs on mine and so far haven't run into that problem.....just don't leave them on for too long ;-) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vwdeviant 0 Posted July 19, 2006 Cheers Kev! So is it a case of popping the cover and adding a bulb or will it need some wiring as well? Or maybe go onto E-bay international and see if can locate a "Foreign" Light? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Henny 0 Posted July 19, 2006 pop in a bulb, and off it goes.... :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vwdeviant 0 Posted July 19, 2006 Cool, no more looking cheap when it's foggy, and twice the ability to blind people on the motorway for hogging the middle lane! :mad: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Supercharged 2 Posted July 19, 2006 You can order a new unit from VW for a LHD - about £25 IIRC... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cymru-corrado 0 Posted July 20, 2006 my Corrado has had two rear fogs since i got it so someone must have had a play with it before or thought one wasnt working and put a bulb in. i always thought twin rear fogs were standard on Corrado's though?

Dennis.be 0 Posted July 21, 2006 I've got a how to om my site, maybe you have something with it? http://users.skynet.be/g60_rulez/Page_b ... luiten.htm The manual is in dutch, but the pictures are clear to start with. The only thing you'll have to do is open the second fogg light cover, easy as it can be. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vwdeviant 0 Posted July 21, 2006 Cheers chap, but a translated version would be helpful? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dennis.be 0 Posted July 21, 2006 The cable you'll need the power (signal) from is grey/white, place a cable that begins from the grey/white to the other light, use a special clamp on the unussed conector like you'll see on the third picture. You'll don't need a ground wire, it's already been there. I hope this is what you'll want, my english isn't that good. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
