The fog and reversing light need to be on the centreline of the body or off set, but the fog light needs to be more than 100 mm from the stop light which is only 4 inches
The lights are mounted on shiny GD stand-offs. The positions were marked out on the body using masking tape - minimum height is 250 mm from the ground, maximum for the fog is 1000 mm and 1200 for the reversing light. The IVA is quite specific . However, as my car body is now on axle stands I looked at other blogs for the position. I reckoned that mounting them 15 mm down from the boot opening would be okay.
My lights are the other way round to most people as I opted for the screws to be up and down this posed a bit of an issue with the stand offs
so I used M5 joining nuts and M5 stainless stud to lengthen the bolts .
all done and on to the reverse light next .

Stand off filed out to accept the earth clamp |

joining nuts and studs ready to fit |
measured and drilled (needs a bigger hole than I thought to let the body of the lamp though) |
all done and on to the reverse light next .
