2004 F150 Lightning Where to Get Rear Lights for UK ?
Discussion
Ok, I can see you are struggling with this.
The biggest issue is that the brake and turn signal is combined so these need to be separated for it all to work properly.
Here's what you need to do.
1. Get under the dash and find the wire for the brake light circuit where it comes out of the multi plug for the indicator switch.
2. Cut that wire and extend it down the chassis to the rear loom.
3. Cut the brake light wires and connect your new wire to the lamp end of the brake light wires. You now have brake lights.
4 Take the loom end of the brake light wires and cut the wires to the reverse lamps. Connect the loom end and connect the relevant sides to the reverse lamp wires. Fit orange bulbs in the reverse lamps. You now have orange rear indicators.
5. If you still want a reverse light, fit one and connect it with the cut reverse light wire from the loom.
6. Fit a rear foglight and connect that to an illuminated switch on the dash board or run a wire from the front fogs to the rear fog light.
Alternately, take it to an auto electrician (like I used to be)

So if I get rid of my switch and wire the rear fog into the front fog lights, I won't have any issues?
That's how my Mustang is wired as it came in via SVA. Pull the light switch out and it puts front and rear on at the same time.Pain in the arse if I'm honest as some times you want one and not the other. Really must get round to splitting them on to two switches.

Really? When do you find front fogs necessary and not the rear?Pain in the arse if I'm honest as some times you want one and not the other. Really must get round to splitting them on to two switches.
