Whats the deal

[Jinx]

Per the 2003 Boxster manual on US cars
The rear fog light is only on the drivers side.
This is so that the fog lamps are not confused
With the brake lights.

Timco was just kidding, Jinx. It's common for owners to not understand the rear fog light.

I had no idea, I always assumed it was both because every other German car I see with them on has two. Good to know!

Lived in Germany for ten years and never saw a car with two fog tail lights. As Jinx says, it would confuse other drivers: look like you had your foot on the brake the whole time. If you have two fog tail lights, somebody's been screwing with the wiring.
