Question Aftermarket rear fog light F54

I am the 2nd owner of a 2017 clubman S all 4. The original owner did not opt for the rear fog light. I want to add one. The dealer said it costs thousands of dollars to do so.
any aftermarket options that won't break the bank?
Thanks-

Find another dealer!
I believe you have the lights or at least the housings, already installed. All you should need is the right switch & the $$$ programming.
The $$$dealer charge is probably close to what that option would have originally cost from the factory.

Many have opted to just code the rear fogs as additional brake lights. You can check the older F56 thread https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...pert-mode.html

Cool rear fog revisited

I bought the switch from ECS tuning that includes both fog lights https://www.ecstuning.com/b-genuine-...t/61315a25471/
and found an independent shop to install it and code the lights with Bimmercode. Whole deal should be around $400, including the part. I drive in the fog a lot in the PNW, so am thinking of this as a safety improvement, not a performance upgrade. Easier to sell myself on the price. Will report back after it is done.

I bought the switch from ECS for around $200 and my local independent mini shop installed it and did the coding for around $200, so functional rear fog lights just like European stock minis for $400. Very pleased.
