brake- and foglight in LED
Hi all,

I live in the countryside, now the days are shorter and often also foggy in the morning.
The Twizy does not have any Foglights :( .

So I thought: extra Brake- and foglights is a good :idea:

This is what I have come up with.







- The Brake lights comes on the place of the red reflectors, power is coming from de main brakelicht
- Foglight in the middle at the bottom (in the plastic cutout), on/off with a switch.

Is this a good idea? :question:

If you do such mods, there are always two aspects:
The technical and
legal one.
Here it would be illegal as far as I know.
Technically people ran into all kind of troubles when playing with LEDs, but some claim it works.
But I live in a big city and dont need it anyway.
Good luck

Mit dem Twizy dem ultimativen Großstadtauto heute schon ganz nah sein.

For me it seems to be a great idea! :woohoo:
I missed sometimes the foglight, too. Here in my region we often have fog in the morning and evening.
So I'm very interessted in your modifications. :)

The metal parts, where the LED-Stripes are mounted on, are your work?

Yes, all the 3 parts are from 2mm alu.
LED's are from Ebay
