Anyone know of a small slim fog light and reverse light
killerferret666 - 25/11/14 at 09:16 AM

I'm after effectively almost like a strip of LEDs, but id like it in a nice plastic casing really.

So about 1 - 2cm in height and 5 - 10cm in width. Doesnt need to be F / E marked as ive passed IVA.

Im just looking for something to do the the job which is very slim and small.

Ebay searches just bring up the strip's of LED's you get on a reel.

I have one of these, its under the number plate (there is a pic in my archive)
and ive made it switched from third brake light or fog

New 32 LED Car Red Third Brake Stop Tail Light Lamp 12V

ideally it would under or on the roll bar, but when the hood is on, its obscured

they'd both be almost perfect in their own way if they weren't so long.

After about 100mm and they are roughly 240mm but in terms of look that's exactly what I mean in terms of plastic casing etc...

The other day I was driving behind a Camaro, late model amd I noticed its reverse light. Do a Google search amd I'm sure you will see what I mean.

These guys are in US, and expensive, but have a huge choice (website isnt that easy to navigate either)

Look for COB (chip on board) led, i.e. Car Self Adhesive 84 COB LED Clip DRL Daytime Running Light Red 2 Pcs | eBay

Car builder Solutions had some nice slim units but nothing the size you wanted.

Here is mine

There are some pretty slim ones on the backs of recent mini coopers, but I think they are more than 100mm wide. Where there are 2 separate lamps, one is a combined fog/reversing, the other is just reversing.

Try Led Autolamps, they do some about the size you are looking for.

cheers everyone i had alot to look through last night

found one strip that looked very close and good quality in one the links but worked out at about £40 + delivery from states!

Ive taken a gamble on some dirt cheap ones off ebay because if it doesnt work out it doesnt matter. They are also only 120m long, shortest I could find.

As they are sold as Daylight running lights they should be quite bright...I hope!
