Don't give up yet. The fog wires (one for each fog light) must be run to the BDC_BODY located in the front passenger side footwell of the vehicle. You already found the schematic that identifies where the wires connect (connector and pins) to the BDC_BODY.

You will also need to FDL code BDC_BODY to enable the LHD and RHD rear fogs. As you have already noted, there is normally only one rear fog (on the driver's side of the vehicle) so it will take a little work to identifying how to code BDC_BODY to enable both rear fogs but I can help you with that. Do you have experience with Esys?

FYI, I installed the rear fog (only one side) on my G20. The install for your G05 appears to be similar to my G20 but for the G20, the rear fog is integrated into the tail light assembly so I had to install ECE taillights and figure out how to FDL code the ECE taillights to work in the US G20.

Installing rear fogs into your G05 should be a relatively straight forward process.
