Hi yellodisco

Must admit they don’t look to bad to fit, remove bumper and either wire into light clusters or towing socket electrics, personally, I think wiring into the 12n towing circuit connector looks the best way forward

12N/ 12S Grey connectors are situated as u look at the boot in the LH side locker , so wire nearly everything into ur 12N connector then pick up the reverse light feed from the 12s connector

I fitted a small fuse box and 12s socket for my CTEK , pic below , still have some spare crimp terminals to add the extra wires into the connectors for these rear bumper lights

Maybe someone has done it a simpler way , but looking at its just my personal preference

Hope that helps and still have the wiring PIN numbers/ colours so if u do go that route and get stuck more than happy to share the info

As always , a team effort from the fantastic members here

Ps, hope this may also help , as a side note if u haven’t got a 12s towing socket to be utilised for a charging point for the CTEK, ( located in the hallway ) I also fitted a connector to the front of the house to make life easier





If the towing socket looms haven’t been connected to the ends of the grey connectors u should find this fitting on the end of both 12N and 12s sockets , so u can then use it along with the crimp terminals to connect to it

Hi yellodisco

Ur so welcome , alas , i need to remove my rear bumper to fix the sensors anyway , so just thought I might as well do this light mod at the same time

But will replace my brake hoses first before doing this

Glad it help so at least the Info is there in case u change ur mind Thumbs Up

Many thks Thumbs Up

May i ask a Daft question please , would it be better to fit a switch for those rear bumper reflector lights for MOT purposes plse or is it the case that lights must work if fitted

As I also see they do the lights smoked so would blend into the bumper better

many thks in advance Thumbs Up

I just found the set of bumper lights I bought and never got round to fitting...

Does anyone want them? I paid very little for them so if anyone is able to cover the postage plus a beer I will send them to you! If not, they will sit in my garage for ever!
