Please help me to do this...

So I would like to do the rear fog light to brake light mod on my 07 MCS, but I find out my socket has a little bit different than in the other post... I believe my MCS is the euro ver. I am not sure with thou.

in the attachment from the right is 1 2 3 4 5 6

compare to the R52 the 1 2 3 4 5 are used, and my R56 are 1 2 3 4 6 are used.

So the R52 is connecting the number 1 and 4, how about my?

Thank you,

Billy

If i'm reading your post correctly...your R56 should have the rear fogs mounted in the bumper, correct?

I'm no electrical whiz, but I don't believe you can just jump pins on the R56 tail light plug like you can in the R50, R52, R53 to make your rear fogs come on with the brake lights.

Yes I have the fog light from factory, what do I need to do to light up the rear fogs when I brake?

Could I do this to my r56?

Because the shipping cost is $30 more than the kit itself...
