    They do, but it doesn't look out of place with the clear reverse lamps there too. Looks more like the OEM lamps.

    That's a nice idea Mr Jack, how did you go about doing it?

    Did you use LED red bulbs for the fogs? I used one in a twin-reverse setup and it was just pink!

    I've never in my life put a fog light on. Have never had the need to.
    When you be revering around a corner in heavy fog with cars comming towards you.. You'd simple stop like your ment to.

    i havent either, but what if a car coming towards you couldnt see you.

    saying that, they should be able to see you because of your reverse light.

    They'd have their lights on so you'd see them/them see you.

    They are a little pink and not quite as bright as I'd like - however this could be fixed by using better fog bulbs. I just used some cheapy ones to see if it would work.

    Well you'd only have the foglight on in fog I would assume. So the cars coming from behind would see you reversing. Why you'd be reversing in fog towards oncoming cars though is beyond me, sounds a little bit dangerous, no?

    You can operate both at the same time. Not sure how it would look, but the lamp will only be as bright as the brightest bulb in there (or something like that). Turning both on won't make it any darker
