fitting fogs would be easy, wiring them might be a bit more tricky, You could fit them without wiring for just the look of them, but this would fail an mot

They are used by the young lads who have them on all the time because they think they look cool. |

To be honest I don't think the bumper has Amy holes in or appear to have anything covering the hole which could be taken out easy, think I'll get the side steps instedv, any1 known any good retailers? |

I think the Bumper Inserts just pop out leaving the hole to fit the lamps, you will need the Lamp Bezels, Fog Lamps, Lamp Harness and a switch. You most likely want use the Fog Lamps for the intended purpose but they do cosmetically break up the Bumper. |

Fitting front fog lights without making them work wouldn't fail an mot. Front fog lights working or not are not a testable item and therefore can't be failed. Rear foglights only are testable. |

If a "grumpy" tester cares to argue the point just tell he is wrong and then ask him for a Form VT17, he has to give you one. Usually concentrates the mind of "grumpy" testers. |

Have a look on the bay for an idea, Lamps themselves are pretty universal,about £40 a pair, Bezels about the same, plus wiring and relays, you may have to go th the dealer for the genuine harness or make one up. |
