Fog Lamps!!!

[XTR]

This has just put the cherry on the top of the cake. We all hate fog lamps... Well i hate them in a NEW way!!!! It's smashed!!! and Renault wont sell me a replacement lens. But they will sell me a drivers side fog lamp kit for £44.77....






I think i'll phone around a few scrap yards

[Craig]

how that happen?

[Shad]

I have a confession to make...














Because my fog lights don't look like fog lights to the casual observer (they are integrated into the main light cluster, with the indicators where you would expect fog lights to be), I have been known to drive with them on. I don't think they're any worse than full on Xenon kits.

not yet. Recommend any in the North East?

Sorry mate, I'm down swindon/oxford way.

Would recommend roverbreakers in manchester, but like the name suggests i think they only do rover parts

[gobbo]

Dunno if its any good, but I know a lot of Nissan dealers do Renault parts, Nissan own some of Renault i think. Might be worth trying them out??

I remember my mate telling me that Renault owns Nissan...

Renaults Price = £44.77.... XTR's price = £0

I'm going to make my own I've removed the fog lamp, and all the broken glass. I'm going to make a Polycarbonate lens We shall see how it turns out in the next few days

Nowt hard about making a perspex cover for a light.... Its all the way down there *points* and hidden in the bumper. So basically.... i cut some perspex out and round the edges on it, Buff it up and get it shining.... then glue gun it to the fog lamp easy!!!!!!!!!!! And polycarbonate isn't going to smash, like glass does....

[Shad]

It'll scratch though. And isn't the existing glass curved? That was my main thought for the "how"

I'll curve it then

[Jiff Lemon]

Hot air Paintstripper guns are wonderful for bending polycarbonate. Just don't get it too hot!

I see there is a whole foglight kit on ebay but up to £51 already. Handy if you decide to break the other side.

See ' Renault Megane Front Fog Light Kit '
