This way you will have the --v-- on as a fog light or when headlights are on and the Triangle Brake light will flash in either of those 2 conditions. The only time the Brake light will not flash is when the switch is in the "headlight" position and the headlights are off. Make sense?


Of course, the rest of the connections will still need to be made...long red lead tapped into the brake wire (green I think) on the OEM tail light harness and the backup connector plugged in.
The only problem with this is that i need the actual triangle to be the fog light, not the V. I'm doing this because I'm importing an american frs to europe, and we are required to have rear fog lights, and it should be a bright ass light, visible through fog from far behind. I don't think the V would cut it
