Multi tasking fog lights?
A slightly weird question but bear with me...
I want to use a foglight which doubles up as a normal tail light when its not foggy. Basically I will use a relay to switch the fog light into
'fog' or 'normal' modes and if you think about it, this is a safety mod as it uses a 'dead' light which is
otherwise only used once in a blue moon.
Will Mr SVA have a problem with this? I know that MOT will be ok coz I had this system on my Nissan tin top. In fact I went one stage further with
that one - I had two colour fog light / reversing light which switched automatically depending on the mode selected.

IIRC Fog lights are marked up as such. Standard tail lights are also marked up. Depends on your lenses I guess...
Fog lights are normally polished reflectors for obvious reasons.

Yep you need a silver reflector and thats no use for the sidelight function. Also you need to be 100 mm away from the brake light.

IIRC, on our two Cavalier we had, the top lights were brake lights, and the botom ones were tail/rear fogs.
