In Canada we can't order the rear fog lights so how do we add after market???

2012 Cooper S Countryman All4

Mical -

AFAIK, installing/activating the rear fog light on a Countryman (in the OEM position - tail light cluster) also requires a change to the VO string in the CAS/FRM computer modules. Looks like you may have grafted-on a non-Countryman RFL and wired it into the circuit????

Thanks,

 

It's an R58 factory RFL that I tapped into factory fog light wiring. Currently it's wired to come on w/front fog lights, but can easily be changed over to an independent switch set up. I did it for the simplicity/functional factor.

 

Mical, will you please post photos of the rear fog turned on at day/night so we can see its effectiveness? Thank you!

 

Here you go...

 

Couple more from today

 

Awesome - but what are the clear lenses on the side for? Pretty bright so I think I would want to wire mine on a stand alone switch. Good job though. Thanks again. Barry

 

Agree. I followed some bozo with his rear fogs on in clear weather. Was REALLY annoying.

 

The clear lenses are for back up lights.

And YES in clear weather it would be extremely obnoxious. I use it when on some of the desolate hwys and country roads especially late night coming from gigs - keeps the drunks in check.
