    A big thanks to vjd3 for posting them over the pond to jolly old England...

    Fitted these yesterday whilst the bumper was off. Also painted the rear diffusers satin black to match the bumper. I really like the stealth bumper look rather than the silver blades and chrome exhaust tips.

    Have also re-wired the brake light so they work properly. :)

    Looks great Matt!

    Can you share where you tapped power from the lower brake lights to feed power to the upper tail lights (rear fog lights)?
    Looking at the wiring diagram there's a disconnect connector somewhere in the trunk but I cant find it yet........

    Hey Dan. Unfortunately I can't as I didn't do the wiring myself. I outsourced it to a local autoshop - they told me they used the wiring diagram to swap around the pins at the fuse box so no wiring modification was needed. I asked them to share this with me, but they wouldn't. :(

    That’s a brilliant approach and I bet it’s much simpler....why they don’t want to share. I don’t own mine anymore but drove me crazy. I actually dislike how my 812 had the brake lights on the interior set. Seems like they should be the outer most lights.

    Hi, wanted to also ask did the swap the brake lights with the rear fog or with the rear running lights. I think i may have found the pins but only find a single pin for the fogs and 2 pins for the stop lights.

    Hi Mick,

    I added the rear fog lights to the brake light system.
    My rear fog lights are now disabled and they now function / come on when the brakes are applied.

    I did mine this way as I know its a simple clean wiring modification.
    Im hesitant to swap wiring at the fuse box location as I know it will be a very expensive experiment if I make a mistake with the wirings at the fuse box.

    Kindly share what you find.

    All the best to you.

    Dan
