Took a little digging but I was able to route a new cable from the new left fog light, into the boot by the battery. There is a convenient earth stud here so used that for the fog light earth. I then followed the existing wiring loom to the right side cubby in the boot.

I identified the correct wire to the existing fog light in the wiring loom (Yellow - red trace), tapped into it and it worked.

Thats amazing man. Can you share the part number for the fog light if you have it. im looking for the passenger side (UK driver side fog light) as mine was dummy light. do you remember how much it was by any chance? Did you take any pics?

OP - i very much want to help but im not sure what pics you need for me to take as I have euro spec G05 (in the middle east) .

Speaking of which

Just realized mine is dummy too

I'm also retrofitting rear fog light on US G05, my prblem is that the car has another rear bumper, so there are no foglight reflectors available for this bumper.
Electrical i've done the wiring and coded the car. I ordered the fog light and see if i can make it fit in the US bumper.
