Interior/Exterior anyway to wire up rear fog on 02MCS?

There is a kit for the 2002-2004 cars which includes a new switch panel for the center console. Then the option just needs to be enabled through the software. Note, this will not work correctly if you have the upper tail lights (which are the fog lamps) jumpered with wires to cause them to come on as extra brake lights. In that case you would need to replace the wires with diodes.
I am suprised the dealer played dumb on this. Or...... maybe I'm not.

I paid 50 bucks for the Euro switch and then had them program the ECU. It takes like 15 minutes between hook up, programming, and removal of computer. I did the Euro switch in also 15 minutes (More like an hour because I was drunk). It's not hard. Take the screws out of the 2 posts alongside the radio. Pop the dashboard trim off. Disconnect the harness from the panel and then re-install everything in reverse order. I think that is about it. Oh....I got scammed on the programming cost. They charged me 60 bucks (1 hour) of labor even though it took 15 minutes. Hope that helps. P.S. - The rear fog light retrofit will not work if you have the jumpers installed or you have the ll clear lenses.:smile:

Classic MINI sells them. They are an advertiser on the site. I think mine was maybe $65 shipped. Install took 15 minutes and the dealer charged me a programming fee of $40 to turn them on. THey can also make other changes to setting while they do it so if you want do anything with daytime runnig lights, comfort opening, multi-press unlocking, etc, that would be the time.
