    I did something similar to my R56 and rigged the circuit to my brakes. I have 5 brake lights now.

    Nice - any pics or how you did it? Did you just splice the wires or did you do something magical? The GP2 supposedly has the rear LED fog light. Frankly, I have not had time to go out there and see. But I did get some more stuff migrated this weekend. :Bag:

    I spliced them with cheap clamp splicers. Works really well - they come when the headlights are on and brighten on the brakes, wether the lights are on or not.

    Ok - so you didn't splice them directly into the brake wires. They turn on when the lights go on and "brighten" when brakes? That would be interesting to see if I have that correct.
