Fog light smashed.

[Vrs84]

As above really just had my fog light smashed by a stone from the car in front. Don't suppose anyone has a spare near side one for a Mk2 face lift vRS or have any idea on cost to replace???

Thanks in advance

Giving this a bump as it seems to be having reads but no posts. If anyone could help me out as to the cost I would be grateful.

I spent ages looking for one second have as new they were £75... Got one for £50.

Pig of a job too, while bumper off despite what anybody says on here...

[StevesTruck]

Look the same as a lot of vag cars, so £15 each from eurocarparts.

Replacement of the FL fogs are simple.
literally a 3 minute jub.
Put your finger in to the surrounding grill and pull off >> You wont breakr it.

Remove 3 screws holding foglamp in place

take out fog

Put in new fog and 3 screws

Pop grill back in
stand back and smile

 

I would almost have it done in the amount of time it took me to type this

Very easy to fit. Follow the instructions above and you will be fine. I had to do mine after a stone smashed the driver side. My screws had a hex head.

Vrs84 don't listen to them, I did and have up twice as I just couldn't do it - in the end I was so angry I could only do it removing whole bumper...

If u have lady hands, screws which arnt seized and bags of patience then maybe... Otherwise bumper off - done this 2 months ago...

Your car sounds like a PRE Facelift model.

Am I correct?

The instructions are for a FL model.

[italiandave]

Sorry but I don't get the UK reg system.

Is it Facelift or Pre facelift?

The OP has a Facelift and I can assure him it is a simple job as I described.

[ChrisRs]

It wont be an FL if his car has a PD engine

[Anddenton]

Not a facelift on a 56 plate.

on a pre face lift you dont need to remove the bumper. Just pop the passenger side wheel off and remove the arch liner (very easy job). Then you can reach the 3 screws holding the unit in place. Whilst you are there you could re-fit your temp sensor and you might get some accurate readings on the dash lol

[Vrs84]

Cheers guys. I can confirm that mine is a face-lift model. I will source a light unit and give this a go following the instructions above.

Italiandave thanks for your input but your model is the pre face-lift so the way of changing them isn't the same. Thanks again for the input though.

On Drivers side you have the washing bottle in the way guys so going through the side dont work as easily described.

 

Soz for getting FL mixed up
