U.S. spec XJS' did not have rear fogs...(at least my '84 and '91 didn't), though if one were ambitious enough; you could the take a rear rubber cover off a XJ40, make cut-outs in the aluminum reinforcement on the XJS, and voila! Sharp looking rear fogs.

You've got to be kidding me??? How do you keep from blinding the driver behind you??? Don't get me wrong, I've wanted to mount a driving light, pointed backwards to blind the sucker who runs up behind you, with his Hi Beams on, and won't dim them! But to have them, and actually use them as fog lights??? I don't get it???

Yeah, not white as front fogs are. In each light housing and a brighter red color, sort of like stepping on the brake but located in a different area. My brake lights are WAY brighter than standard, as I have replaced all but turn signals with LED's.

Don't people read their owner's manual any more? Half the questions on these forums are caused by a lack of basic research - the most basic being the reading of the manual to find out what features the car has and how to access/operate those features. On the F-Type forum there was a lambasting of Jaguar for not providing fore/aft movement of the driver's seat...it turned out that the poster had not read his manual and therefore did not know that his (base, non-optioned) model had electric tilt but a manual fore/aft adjustment...so he couldn't see how to move the seat. (To be clear, almost all F-Types sold had/have thousand-way electric adjustment).
The owner's manual is your friend.

But only effective if tailgater is a true numpty and does not realize why you have also put on your rear lights. "Fogs only work when main lights are on".
Big menace today in UK is idiot with illegal high intensity rear and brake lights sitting at traffic lights with foot brake on. No consideration for the poor guy behind him.
