the plugs are the same, but the wiring is not... our cars do not have rear fog lights, so you will run into that problem!

also, our tail lights do not have the E marks on them, making them illegal to use in Europe... it's a whole lot easier to just get the 2003 323F tail lights you know... they look like ours but has a rear fog light

Im sure someone can make pics available, might be a thread somehwere of someone swapping light or swapping bulbs that could help, I know there are lots of people interested in EDM tails though

Rear fog lights?

I've been in Europe, I've seen the 323F with our rear lights on some of them. If it's illegal I don't think the cops care too much. But if it was the 2003 323F taillights I saw then nevermind.

that's some good info...

besides that i know that the wiring is different etc but what i actually need is some closeup view so i can see if theres some &quot;premade&quot; hole track for the rear foglight in the usdm-taillights, so i could easily drill the holes into it...
