        You will need to run a cable to the dashboard for the switch, the double filament and find a red / white bulb. If you want to use it as a second set of brake lights it will need some diodes.
        I bought a kit from better car lighting.

          The red/white LED from classiccarleds defaults to red, so if using it as brake/reverse light an additional relay will be required to ensure that they work as reverse lights when manoeuvring. I did discuss this with the owner of classiccarleds and he said he would look at possibly modifying the bulbs, but don't know if he did.

            Grampian Stags avoids the use of diodes by putting in a relay.

              As I haven't got a hard top I used the heated rear window switch for the fog light control. I just fished the wire from the drivers side B post and extended it to the back of the car.

                Same here, but the most of my bulbs are from them. As DJT says I fitted a relay so the reverse lights stay on when the brake is applied, Better car lighting's setup gives you 4 brake lights & fog lights. I would suggest getting LED stop/tail bulbs while you are at it if not already done, make a big difference to most Stags.
