I've had this in mind for a while. Extra cargo lashing points, but a bit different to standard. I bought the cargo track back in February at the Stafford 4x4 Expo. I have filled in the original csk holes and drilled new ones to suit the M6 holes in the rear panel, what I didn't realise is the rear panel has a curve in it near the B-post. I have stuck rubber draft excluder on the back to protect the paintwork. Finally I sprayed the tracks with a black Rubber Wrap paint. The rings can be quickly removed if need be when not in use.

Years ago I bought some Osram LEDriving Foglights . I had them on my previous car for about 6 years and removed them when I traded her in for the Jimny.

Although the units are a straight swap, it comes with its own control module that needs wiring in. The kit comes with one dummy Fog-light connector to blank off one of the original light connectors, but in the Jimny' case I had to make two up for the DRL connectors as well.
From experience I can say they work very well as a fog-light producing a low flat beam that cuts through.



L/H side with quick release connector for headlamp washers and connector for Fog/DRL.


Two dummy connectors, these were small extension cables with male and female connectors on. Cut the wires off, some heat shrink and filled with auto sealant.


R/H side original connector, and the two from the Osram control module that plug straight into the Osram lamps.


Suzuki Fog/DRL unit. The small loom has to be kept for the module to plug in to on one side.


L/H side with Osram lamp unit, supplied dummy connector and home brewed DRL dummy. The lamp wire is fed along the washer hose to the R/H side.


Not a bad beam from Suzuki.


Osram, whiter light with a more focused beam (not as fuzzy round the edges).




DRLs on (not the best lighting conditions for effect).


Fog-lights on.

Doh!
I managed to link the wrong picture for the 5th one down. This is the correct one.
