F and E mark rear lights.
 
After doing a bit of reading on the forum i have noticed people saying that rear lights now have to have F mark on them as well as E mark? Just a little confused as to exactly what is required.

What I'm looking for is a rear light set (but individual lamps) that has the markings required for current IVA. 90mm - 110mm in dia and not too deep as i have big wheels in my arches and don't want them to rub the rubber. If anyone has any links to some that might fit the bill please let me know :D Oh and looking to spend around £50-70

Thanks guys

I'm pretty sure you only need the F mark on the rear foglight.

Quite right, the F or indeed B is for the rear fog light only.

DAM...

After spending ages on my rear fog lamp mount for a brand new WIPAC lamp from bolt-on-bits...

I looked at the lamp and there's no F or B...

F...

I'm in the same boat TT. Think I will pick up a marked one from stoneleigh show as I can check to see if its marked.

I was trying to save money buying from BoB but looks like ill have to buy twice

Hopefully I will find a lamp to fit the NAS plinth. If not I will buy anotehr reverse light to fit that and then another fog lamp and work out a fitting for that.

I've messaged BoB and they tell me that only their LED fogs have the F mark. I see they have a single 95mm LED light so I've asked if they will consider bundling them together.

Woudn't bother me if the fog was LEd and the rest bulbs.

yeah my lamps are going back to be replaced by LED ones.

They are very helpful at BOB, I had not fully realised the requirement for F.
