Do you mean this reverse light ?
I think the red light on it is not bright enough to be used as fog light...

That one yes. No no, not to be used as fog. I meant instead of the fog light to get the red DRL, just like regular tail lights.

 

[John577]

Oh sorry, misunderstand it

And what will you use for fog light ?

I think it's a little harder to implement it for us also. We have separate wires for turn and brake. They have one I think, and the priority is from the ECU, as opposed to the EU modified ones that have small circuits for that.
I think we can use this thing also, just cut the connectors and put an Arduino board between them with a code that tells the tail turn signal>brake.
I plan to use one for both tails and make the fog light into a Formula 1 type of brake(tho I see raxiom made a nice reverse/drl fog)

Yeah but since it's doable (we have someone in Europe that already done that, and probably you can sort something out also), for companies with engineers and technicians this should be not too difficult.
But again, they don't seem interested to EU\AU market.

I like them.

Bet they aren't EU compatible though....

Is there anything EU compatible? :doh:

They could make the kit for tails like for the headlights.
I think they are aiming for Ford GT, not Ferrari.

Some guy stopped me in traffic and asked me "is this a ferrari?" and I said "no, it's a lambor....fk...mmm...mustang"
I was so confused why would he say Ferrari, all I could think of is that I drive a Lambo )

Edit: While the direct install of these Raxiom Halo LEDs will be compatible with the factory turn signal sequencing.
I don"t understand the sequential turn signal on round tails. Hmmm.

Apart from the most asked question if it's a diesel, the Ferrari one remains in my top 5 most asked questions after almost 1 year:frusty:

Went to the deserted city of Doel in Belgium yesterday with some fellow Mustang drivers for a fotoshoot.

Nice pictures Eric! And cool place

The DRL ))
Idk, I'm a little skeptical of the fog light. If someone drives so fast to ram my behind(awkward silence) so they can't see the regular tails, then I doubt the fog will make him aware in time to slow down. Plus I'd rather make the car look good for 364 days than have 1 day of fog.

That's true, but the problem is not the other drivers but the guys at the inspection. If the light doesn't correpond to the standard (fog brighter than the rear lights) they can say that your light, and your car, is in an illegal condition...

Yeah I know. But why would they inspect me? i'm a good guy.
I guess I'll keep the fog case also and if there's a problem, I'll just change it to factory.

Have you seen my post with my new rear light ? With it, you can have the running light and also a brighter fog light.

Two days ago I did my first tires* rotation and alignment:

Four guys all working on my car. Lots of questions about it and lots of compliments
They did a really professional job, about 45 min and asked 65 eur.

:cheers:

* I prefer the US version "tire" to the UK "tyre"

 

[John577]

They did the same last time during my first service, the front was a bit misaligned. Now everything is perfect like the first day

Now, I need to repair my windsreen as I have a stone impact on it :doh:

Here other pictures mounted on a car :cheers:
