[How too] Converting from early to late fogs and indicators

Recommended Posts

I replied to a PM asking me how I did this and thought it may be useful information to others also thinking about making the change - so, here's my reply:

 

Hello!

 

Been a little while since I did it but I think I remember...

 

It's very easy really and was done in about 30 minutes! Firstly (after removing your existing set up) you will need to change the bulb holder for the fog lights as they differ between models - just simply trace the loom back and you'll find that it just plugs in to the loom up behind the bumper somewhere.

 

Next you need to remove a white clip which is located in the bumper iron on the inner side of the recess - the reason being is that the mounting lug for the late fog is larger than the early one.

 

Once you have done this trial fit the fog and surround in the recess. This is the point where you will find that a certain amount of the rubber backing behind the recess needs to be cut slightly to allow for the extra mounting depth of both the late fog and indicator. I butchered mine with a pair of pliers and ripped most of it out.

 

And now the easy bit... connect both the indicator and fog to the loom and fit the fog and surround - you will find the screw holes are already there for securing the black surround. Lastly fit the indicator by pushing in the outer end in first and then clipping the middle in next to the fog - job complete :D

 

 

Just realised that this is all explained in the Knowledge Base but there's no harm having more info here too :oops:
