Fog Lights

humphshumphs · 11th October 2015, 13:02

Just had a look on the rimmers site and they dont list different fog lights for the pre-facelift and facelift bumpers for the 75.

Am I correct in thinking that fog lights from a 2003 pre-facelift will fit a 2005 facelift??

It would appear so.....

They will fit with some alterations to the rear of the bumper. The pre- and post-facelift lamps have a beam adjuster wheel that's in a different position. Otherwise they're are the same. I fitted some pre-type to my facelift by carefully paring away a small area of the rear mounting boss to clear the adjuster wheel. They then only need three self-tappers into the mounting points on the bumper.

The earlier fitting kit will also fit and the Fitting Guide can be used if you have the original parts.

Obviously, you don't need the bezels that come in the OEM kit.

Worth hanging on to them...... Got a spare set that I wasn't sure would fit, but even with a little bit of 'modifying' they'll stay in 'stock' as they don't take up much space

Useful info as I'm considering fitting fogs to my facelift tourer when I take bumper off to fit gold resistor to air con slow fan.

Thanks
