Bongo Fury

Done Ozric and thanks for alerting me. Do I need to advise DVLC in case a Bongo with a smudged numberplate is involved in a road accident and it turns out to be mine?

LMAO I like it

Bought the same flush fitting fog lamp for £10 plus p&p and vat, total cost £13.51. Arrived the following day, very happy with it and it fitted perfectly.

Good price - where did you get it? I was sure they could be got from a non-Bongo source, though I'm not fussed about the little extra from Bongobits as it saved me the hassle of searching.

Apologies Andrew n Mary - just seen you gave a phone number (thats Bracknell isnt it? I used to work near there)

Nice job that mike, very neat, I dont suppose there is a manufacturer's name anywhere on the lights is there? i wouldn't mind putting in a search for some clear units for extra reverse lights... cheers bud.

I'll have a look bigdaddy but dont recall anything much on them. The post before yours in this thread gives a good source. Might be worth phoning them and asking. Or ask Bongobits - I'd imagine they wouldnt charge any different just cos they have clear lenses. Also, even 2 x red lights give a decent bit of light behind, though being red it may be attenuated through tinted glass (any physicists care to comment?)

Thanks mike, i'm after clear ones really, there's such a dark tint on my rear window that the red illumination isn't really sufficient. I barely use my bongo in the winter time( i.e. fog season) So the rear fog lights are only really used to their purpose for the m.o.t. examiner! As soon as i get home from the m.o.t. i whip the "reds" off and replace the "clears". I'm after the same amount of "white light " output, just not from my danglies (wahay!) And those flush one's look so much better.

Dont forget to phone bongobits AVA etc and ask. I'll not be able to do owt till t'weekend and even then my faulty brain has to remember to do it

You could always fit spots on your rear Thers a big choice of small ones in Halfords or on the net.
They could also be used to blind tail gaters

Thats not a completely daft idea Ozric. I remember buying a reversing lamp for my first car, a Hillman Imp. It was boxed as suitable for front or rear mounting!?!

Not sure about the legality of spotlamps on the rear - I thought rear lamps were restricted to 18 watts.

21W

That's what I meant!

bigdaddycain, just because you have got through an MOT with legal rear foglamps doesn't prevent you from being "done" for not having them working if you are stopped for any reason.

Remember, fog can occur at any time of year.

About the only time we get it here on the coast is on summer days when a big bank of the stuff rolls in from the sea.
