I've been looking for some simple mods to do on my wife's 2008 VW Touareg, and decided to add rear fog lights. This is fairly easy, requiring just a euroswitch, some wire, and a light bulb. The switch can be changed without tools, and the Comfort Control module (where the wiring takes place) is mounted in a bay in the trunk, making access and wiring much easier than my Passat. Turns out the light bulb may be the hardest part to find.
The bulb housing in the taillight is marked "P21W". Autozone had no listing for this part number. Using their computer to located the bulb based on the make/model of the vehicle turned up no listing for rear fog lights.
Eventually, I found a couple of UK automotive sites and realized that P21W is the same as the (fairly) common 1156. A couple of dollars later and I've got the bulb installed. Now I'll just need the wiring and switch!
