Cheapest Set of IVA OK rear lights?

Had a search around on here but struggling to find an answer.
In order to make the Tiger compliant I need to add reverse, angle the fog and probably ditch the existing stop tail as not angled and no built in reflectors. So I'm after doing away with it all and starting again.

Which bring me to looking for the cheapest set IVA OK rear lights for the back of a typical locost type car. I've looked at Demon Tweeks, CBS online, and ebay and prices seem fairly high once you add in the angled pods etc. So what is the cheapest solution?

the stop tail and indicators don't need to be completely vertical like the fog light does, they just have to meet the visibility angles. and they don't have to have reflectors built in. yours are fine, if thats a reflector underneath i see?

you only need to buy a reverse light, and sort the fog out

I got mine from caterham. They are similar to yours. But have a reflector built in! Can you get an angled pod for the fog and reverse? As I need to find a permanent solution for the fog light.
Is your fog light on the wrong side of the car?

Oh I thought they all needed to be vertical, that's good if I can avoid that.

I think Fog is the wrong side as suggested. Also no reverse at all. The rear light clusters are the one's that have a number plate light built into the side, which on this of course just lights up the wing! The reflectors are sticky padded on so look pretty awful.

The whole thing is bit rubbish as it's on it's second set of of rear lights so has a few holes underneath them and I think they're too low anyway so figure if I'm moving them I'll try and get something with the reflectors and no lighting up the wing.
