IVA and Reverse Lights
ChrisJ15 - 3/10/15 at 11:33 AM

Hi,

Im taking the exhaust out of the rear clam of my Sylva J15 next to the number plate on the right.
To visually balance this I want to put a round reverse light on the other side of the number plate. It needs to be as near to the 3" hole for the exhaust as possible.
I cant only find a pair of mini style reversing lights which are E marked.
Does anyone know if I would get away with just fitting just one of a pair of E marked reverse lights for IVA?
I cant put a round fog light there as a single fog needs to go on the right. Its also not practical to exist the exhaust on the left of the number plate.

As far as I'm aware you only need one reverse light .

it is quite common to have fog on drivers side, with reversing light mirroring it on the left.

I don't think reversing lights have to be E marked, but fog certainly do.

None of the lights need to be "E" marked except the rear fog light

Thanks chaps, much appreciated.
Will fo with one and probably put an LED bulb in to improve the brightness.

Fog light should have a F mark on it

12. All rear fog lamps must display an “e” or “E” mark with a “B” or “F”
