Re: (joatmon)

Thank you friends for your advice. After reading the European Standards the back fog lamp needs to be red on the same side of the driver and the reverse lamps need to be white. I need to make one of the reverse lights red to make it look like fog light or maybe install a fog light on the third compa...

Re: (northvibe)

yes the sidemarkers are the blinkers as well, they are the same. When you turn the parking lights are on all the time, just when you are turning they are blinking. In Europe these lights they only need to blink. Do you have a wiring diagram of the Pontiac Vibe lights?Pawkar
