I think Lee is referring to a rear facing high-intensity red light, also called a fog light in Europe.  Keeps folks from piling up on your behind if you don't have a Subaru conversion.  

Ahem.  A bit of TIC Friday humor.

    Has anyone put the euro tail light with a rear fog light in their van?  I was reading the accessories thread and lots of us have put front foglights in, some have put on a rear fog but I haven't heard of the fog in the tail light.  I have the factory switch with the position for it, would be kinda cool to have the light too.

    Lee,
    you might want to check to see if a rear fog light is legal in your area first...
