trying to DIY fog lights - quick question!

hey guys,

first off, what is the diameter of the front foglight slots on an R50? I want to use a set of inexpensive LED lights, because they'll be more reliable and massively less expensive than the OEM kit with incandescent bulbs.

second off, what type of bulb do I need for the rear fogs, and where in the wiring harness (2004) is the hot wire for the rear fogs? again, trying to go LED with an aftermarket controller.

thanks!

I owned an '03 MCS and I know that the rear fog bulb was in the light assembly and in e existing harness. I used a diode to use the rear fog as a second brake bulb.
