Replacement Fog Lamps
 
4 Attachment(s)
Hey

Does anyone know here I would be able to get a pair of fog lamps that look like the pics I have attached?

They have crystal clear glass and black housing on the inside? These would match great with my headlights and front indicators.

I have found some on ebay but the sellers rating is not too good so don't want to purchase them from him.

Who else can I get them from?

Thanks!

they look pretty sweet if you ask me

Thats a nice car that you have there. Do you want to see some pics of my car?

Do you know where else I can get these fog lights from that I have attached pics of?

Cheers!

Ive got a set made by depo (as your pictures) and they do look pretty good but dont expect any light output from them and make sure they are well sealed.
Took mine off last week cos i will need proper working fogs for our upcoming winter and I got mine off a UK ebay seller for £50 but sadly the guy isnt selling them anymore.

Are they laser-printing those EU plates now? They don't look like the old stamped ones.

Nice car dubster1! Them fogs look heavy. Ive managed to find a place where they sell them so im going to place an order tomorrow. I am going to use some rally bulbs from halfords in them. They are 12V 100W. Hopefully they will be bright enough.

I think they are laser printed on because mine already had the EU logo on the backing of the plate and was not stamped on.

They are just your standard UK acrylic plates.Stamped out aluminium type plates havent been used over here since the 1960's,they are more used on the european continent than here.

Bhav, in all honesty better bulbs wont make much of a difference cos them fogs cant actually project much light due to having no reflector but hey! they do look nice once fitted and when summer comes along again mine will be going straight back on :cool:

Bhav nice car btw :cool:

Bhav 10-09-2005 10:22 PM

Thanks! Thanks for the advise! I'll see how bright they are when I get them. I just think they will finish off my car because they will match with my headlights and indicators don't you think?

Dubster1 10-09-2005 10:33 PM

Yep they will go well with your angels and dark chrome indicators.They are perfect to finish the front off :cool:

Bhav 10-10-2005 06:29 PM

Im gutted! I placed an order for the above fog lamps earlier today and have just received a phone call to say that they are having problems with the suppliers and are unable to get them.

Does anyone know where I can get a pair from?

Cheers!

Cool. The acrylic plates are much easier to clean, and by far less expensive. I'm not sure why we're still using stamped ones. Maybe to keep the inmates busy?


And sorry for the hijack, Bhav.

Bhav 10-11-2005 01:43 PM

That is where I placed an order but they are unable to get them from the suppliers at the moment. They are unsure if they their supplier has stopped production. Thanks anyway Matt!

Dubster1 10-11-2005 09:38 PM
