ap2 rear euro fog?
so guys, I’m finally going to do the last piece for a full ap2/cr conversion. Was trying to not do this knowing I have to cut my car to make it fit but I hate the ap1 tails. I scouted for this and found it. I really wanted the left side but wasn’t going to search forever. My question is how will I go about with wiring the fog? Do they sell a switch or can I run to a button not being used like for example the rear defroster button on my cr center console? Anybody who has had experience with this, I would love some feedback. Trying to do this soon.

You'll need to isolate the left rear fog light bulb onto its own circuit, as currently, they're on reverse circuit.
For a reversible installation, I'd recommend running separate wires to the socket, with a switch mounted on the dash. So instead of plugging the bulb into the socket, run the wires from the socket to power and ground, with a switch between the socket and ground. You can indeed source an OEM button like the defroster or VSA button, and use that as your switch.
And if you have any LED needs for your shiny new AP2 tails, we've got you covered.

Thanks, that’s the answer I needed. I just didn’t know if I plugged it in like a normal ap2 tail light if it would stay on constantly or if it would only work as a reverse light like it would without the rear fog. I also never see the oem switch so i can do it the right way but wiring it directly to the rear defogger will prob be my best option. I will definitely look at those led lights. The question is will led light for reverse be for one side? That’s the ones I would want. You also have parking led lights ?

So yes, you'd have one white LED for the reverse and a red LED for the rear fog.
Yep, I have parking lights and replacement LEDs for every single S2000 lighting application.

Youd wire it to a relay and not directly off that circuit.

Yes, this.
I have some solid state relays that are on its way to me. Much better than the noisy coil based automotive SPST relays. Going to make a video on em soon.
