I don't think the G-ltd got the movable fogs, just the JDM GT spec.

It's the inside of the fogs that move anyway - not the outside cover. Does your front fog switch on the dash have 2 positions or 3 positions? If it's only got an on/ off, then they're not movable.

As for 100w bulbs, are these legal? I thought the limit was 65w for road use. Of course you're free to have them for "off road" use...

I can't say whether the standard wiring will cope with this extra current being pulled through it though - you'd need to know how thick the wires were etc etc, and I don't.

Did you get the foglight cover off ok? apparently it's a bit tricky.
