Cause for a while there was all this talk about fog lights and how they are apparent illegal but most cars come oem fogs so I guess it's just a big issue arising from some officials giving people hard time

it's not talk. only BRAND NEW cars from the firm, outfitted with said lights,aka local new cars,are allowed permission to use 'guide lights' on the nations roads. the owners of these vehicles are issued permission from the licensing authority of Trinidad and Tobago.
Foreign used cars are indeed imported with fog lights but it is ILLEGAL TO HAVE THEM. no authority can/will not be issued for foreign used vehicles. I have seen where inspectors make people disconnect the light wires in licensing office when the cars are undergoing inspection. the old workers know the right thing, the young ones may not.
a smart licensing officer will ask for the letter of permission before he/she executes judgment. but Trinidad is a sweet place no one cares about the right thing, only ignorance.
if u want to see what the permission letter for a brand new vehicle looks like, PM me, and we can meet up and ill show you.
don't let ignorance cost u a $750 or $1000 (not sure) ticket for 'unauthorized lights' even though the vehicle came like that.
My $0.02
