Silly question - which should be the fog light?
Discussion
Just checking out the lights for the MOT and noticed that what I would think should be the fog lights and brake lights are reversed on my Griff. That is that lower lights come on with the brakes (nice and bright) and the upper lights that come on with the side lights get brighter with the fog light switch (although still not very bright).
I've not touched the wiring and it has not failed an MOT in 8 years but is this right?
Which is which on your cars?

In spite of owning my car for 17 years I had never noticed the unusual orientation of the rear lights other than the fact that they are reversed Cavalier units.
I checked my owners handbook and your car (and mine) are wired up correctly. 21/5 watt stop and tail light bulbs are common to many cars but the Griff is probably the only car in the world with FOG and tail bulbs!

Hi Rob.
I pondered the same thing and found that by swapping these two wires in the plug the brake light can be moved to the top and fog to the bottom.
The hardest part is getting the connectors out of the plug.
really simple mod which makes it more logic. Just takes a few minutes to change. So thanks for sharingI pondered the same thing and found that by swapping these two wires in the plug the brake light can be moved to the top and fog to the bottom.

I am interested David
I like the 4 light look and the added security of a second light in case of a bulb failure
Have you a record of the mod needed?
Things have moved on since I did my modification , in theory you can get LED plug-in replacement bulbs and you could have four running at half intensity, switching to full Intensity for the brake lights. I like the 4 light look and the added security of a second light in case of a bulb failure
