General Rear fog light on de bumpered x1/9

I wonder if I could convert one of the reverse lamps to a red bulb???

Does it need to be a certain intensity/brightness? Iv had a look at the mot guidance and it doesn't say so?

Fog lights didn't become mandatory until the construction and use regulations were revised in 1985. You could get away with not having one.
 
Red bulb on order! that looks sweet!

Only minor problem is.... Iv just been trying to get both reverse lights working... I understand reverse lights are not an mot requirement, but only one works. And on investigation I think the bulb holder is faulty inside the passenger side cluster.

So I can fit a red bulb, which luckily has to be on the offside, which works as a reverse light, for use as a fog light for mot...

I really need to repair or get a new passenger side rear cluster.

I was wondering about fitting a fog behind the rear grill, but it would be obscured so probably no point.
