Please tell how this was achieved in every detail. Having discreet spotties here is all I really need. Bonus if existing wiring can be adapted. I have a damaged stock lens currently.

Not quite sure as I gave it to my mechanic and his auto electrician, I'll look for the invoice/s and PM you.

Pictures would be good also. Thanks

I upgraded the factory filament globes with Stedi LEDs in the rear fog lamp, as well as the Stefi fog lamp / drl in the ARB bull bar. Plug and play, no need for wiring change.

Light Bar or spotties no good in fog as we all know

Haven't found the invoice yet but I remember the light fitted, at 1st my mech wanted to fit a 90mm but I measured the bezel and said try a 120 mm. The bezel had to be cut just leaving approx 10mm for the clips to still work and the spotties faces are perpendicular with the car, not angled like the fogs IIRC. This leaves a 10-15 mm gap on the outer edges which I just filled with a black plastic folder backing. I also think the foggies had to be butchered to get them out, or to leave their brackets for the new lights to attach to. I got the single COB one (1 Lux at 295m) not the multi LED type. I'll try get pics if I get home in daylight. The auto elec was an agent for Great Whites so he had access to both 90 and 120 mm versions and he made the spotties come on with the std aux spotlight switch not the fog light one, I think the wiring comes as part of the cars std wiring loom, not sure if he had to enable the spotlight switch in the CCF, OBD, etc. Later I did think about asking him to wire the fog light switch to the spotties but drop the voltage to 6V maybe, as foggies really work due to the low mounting position not bouncing the light back off the fog into your eyes, but IIRC the cut out voltage for the LED's was 9V so wouldn't diminish the brightness much.

Sorted, looking for the green/purple wire in the trailer wiring and the only one there goes from the fuse block to a connector ?
This is different to what sneigys photo shows ?

All done.
