Can you directly pass a non-implicit val as argument to a function expecting an implicit?

Excuse the mind blank.

class Bar(implicit foo: Foo)

class Foo {
  implicit val self = this 
  lazy val bar = new Bar
}

Can we simplify the instantiation of Bar to a single statement where this is provided very explicitly as the constructor argument?

My question also applies to passing any val, not only a this as in this example.

The implicit parameter in your constructor is part of the second set of parameters here (the first set is empty), so you can do

val bar = new Bar()(new Foo)
