Alls it is, Is a long rod with a green light on the end when you switch your lights on. Usually they are chrome, but ive seen brassy looking ones as well.
Theres two types the long stiff one, and an electric retractable one which will pop up when you press a button.
Its situated on the passenger side corner of the bumper, by means of a bracket (stiff one) or if you find an electric one you will have to drill a hole in your bumper.
If i come across a piccie i post it in this thread.
Darren.

By the way roosteruk makes his own type which are non electric but have glow in the dark paint inside them.
Give him a shout, and see what you think.

No idea sorry, but you might be better off waiting till the last few seconds before bidding again, as i find it pushes the price up bidding early.
