    LED Rear fog lights?

    It's getting to that time of year where fog is about more and more. I've had a quick look around and can't find any rear LED fog lights.
    Has anyone got one or even know if they exist? Happy to build one if anyone has any pointers (XL700).

    Thanks all.

    Hmmmmmm...........more rear visibilty for following traffic eh



    Have a look at this thread - and if you want the LED rear lights - have a look here.

    You can wire them to be full power at a flick of the switch if required.

    Hope this helps

    Jonathan,

    Can you possibly see if one will fit in the piece of mudguard under the number plate, and if it does, whether the wiring would fit "tidily".

    Thanks

    And if not, whether your suppliers do a smaller version?

    Cie - here's the manufacturers dimensions - basically it would be a very tight fit

    Whealie - this is the smallest 'rectangular' UltraBright LED light that they do - the only other alternative from this company might be the STL-43 Series round ones. Same UltraBright LEDs.
    Remember though that these are sourced from the States, so there is a minimum order on anything from them.



    Alternatively you can find something here that might float your boat, (it's from a caravan store, so if you buy one I WILL take the piss )
