Default Install rear fog light

Hey guys. A friend of mine brings his X150 from the US to Germany. Can someone tell me how much work it is to install it in his car? Do i need many parts? (left tail light for example).

Thank you so far

All X150 years have at least one rear fog light stock. 2007-2009 has one, later models have two rear fog lights.
What year are you speaking of?

Do you have a way to get a copy of the VIN?

Try throwing the VIN into the VIN Decoder here and see if that helps you narrow things down...

It's in the User Manual. Imagine that!



Being a 5 liter, it has two fogs (one each side) and is a 2010 or newer with LED tail lights.

thank you for the response. that sounds like very good news.
Im a little irritated because i cant find the button for the front fog lights. doesnt the x150 have them?

i found the owners manual, but it looks like that the car doesnt have them at the front too?

edit: this document states fog lights in the front too:

https://topix.jaguar.jlrext.com/topix/content/pdf/view?file=/topix/service/archive/70655/lighting.pdf?ignore-mobile=1


so is there any possible option, that it has no rear fog light because of us-spec?

The 5 litre cars, from MY2010, do not have front fog lamps.
