Hey Folks,

After nearly backing my lovely van in to a boulder at night while camping at
Mt Hood, I decided to rig up a simple aux/fog light in the back. I've come
up with a few questions.

1. Can I buy just one fog light? Most I recall seeing, are sold as pairs.
Not sure I need 2. I'm going to check my local wrecking yard for one first.

2. For those who have a rear fog light, do you use round or rectangle? Which
side of the rear bumper did you mount it on?

and finally, 3.

If you wired it to a switch on the dash, how'd you route the wire? Inside
the van? Outside? I'd like to make sure I avoid wiring it neat the engine
where it can melt.

I read one persons note in the archives, of wiring his light  to ground, and
then to his reverse light wire circuit. I like this idea a lot.

thanks much,
dave

p.s. if anyone has a spare fog light, let me know. And, if anyone would like
to split the cost of 2 low end lights (probably about $20 for 2) and use one
I'd gladly go Dutch.
