R55 Drivers side backuplight problem
#1
#3
Thanks for the heads up on the backup light situation. But, I thought it's against the law to have a "white" light at the rear of the car while your going down the road. I bought the car used so I guess the PO chased the same problem for a while too and installed a white bulb.
So, do new cars coming off the line have a "yellow" bulb back there or is this (white bulb) legal back on the other side of the pond?
I'm thinking of rewiring the dead bulb to the other backup bulb so I will have two bulbs when backing out of my parking spot at Wally World..
Double your pleasure, double your fun.. As they use to say.
NB: Don't feel embarrassed if you need to ask what/who "Wally World" is..

if there is a while lens at the bottom on the left the lens was changed to a British/Japanese lens as they drive on the opposite side of the road so the reverse light and fog light are swapped.

+1 White clear lens light on the rear right, and rear fog light on the left. Rear fog light does not work unless activated or coded. This is for US or LHD clubmans.
We carry a Ziza backup light for the backup light now:
